Most Haskell tutorials on the web use a style of teaching akin to language reference manuals. They show you the syntax of the language, a few language constructs, then tell you to create a few simple functions at the interactive prompt. The "hard stuff" of how to write a functioning, useful program is left to the end, or omitted entirely. This tutorial takes a different approach.
a free user interface builder for GTK+ and GNOME interfaces designed are saved as XML, and by using the libglade library these can be loaded by applications dynamically as needed. (Glade can also generate C code)
Interpreting types as abstract values [The Abstract of the lecture notes] We expound a view of type checking as evaluation with `abstract values'. Whereas dynamic semantics, evaluation, deals with (dynamic) values like 0, 1, etc., static semantics, type checking, deals with approximations like int. A type system is sound if it correctly approximates the dynamic behavior and predicts its outcome: if the static semantics predicts that a term has the type int, the dynamic evaluation of the term, if it terminates, will yield an integer. As object language, we use simply-typed and let-polymorphic lambda calculi with integers and integer operations as constants. We use Haskell as a metalanguage in which to write evaluators, type checkers, type reconstructors and inferencers for the object language.
