A general introduction to Functional Programming using Haskell
... In FPLs a function can also take another function as argument: twice :: (a > a) > a > a twice f x = f (f x) – function twice takes a function f and a value x as arguments, and applies f twice (first to x, then to the result of f x) – for example, the result of twice (2*) 4 is 16, while the result ...

It’s essential to be able to define recursive functions, but our language has no direct support for recursive definitions. We have no way of associating a name with a ...

... The trick to recursion is that we would like it to terminate eventually (at least we usually do). One way to guarantee termination of recursion is to use primitive recursion. This amounts to taking a "thing" to recurse on, and making sure that the next call is closer to a terminal condition than the ...

Square brackets [] and braces {} can be used instead of parenthesis (as long as they match per type). There are a few syntactic shortcuts such as e.g. ' ...
