| 2024-05-13 18:25:51 +0200 | <mdpete> | Thank you. |

| 2024-05-13 18:24:58 +0200 | <EvanR> | you're not forced to learn new things, but it's a good idea |
| 2024-05-13 18:24:11 +0200 | <mdpete> | excuse me If I ask much questions, I am very patient , and I believe in learning foundations deeply. Do you recommend to spend time to get used to how haskell force its developers think? or the easy way of python , I don't have any favorites . |

| 2024-05-13 18:19:21 +0200 | <EvanR> | you probably have to forget any python you know to get started in haskell |
| 2024-05-13 18:18:49 +0200 | <EvanR> | the diagrams library and the gloss library are two things which can make showing some graphics easy |
| 2024-05-13 18:18:17 +0200 | <mdpete> | I am self studying without any university degree |
| 2024-05-13 18:18:00 +0200 | <mdpete> | I learned these in Python , and read some chapter of Scheme. |
| 2024-05-13 18:17:15 +0200 | <EvanR> | have you tried following a basic haskell tutorial |
| 2024-05-13 18:17:07 +0200 | <mdpete> | and how to define a function |
| 2024-05-13 18:17:06 +0200 | <EvanR> | this is haskell, so you will be doing pattern matching a lot more than "if statement" |
| 2024-05-13 18:16:44 +0200 | <mdpete> | I just know ,variables, if statement, and lists |
| 2024-05-13 18:15:58 +0200 | <mdpete> | EvanR ,would you please explain a bit more, how I can do it |
| 2024-05-13 18:09:32 +0200 | <stefan-__> | c_wraith: tnx, lets see how it goes |
| 2024-05-13 18:08:37 +0200 | <EvanR> | unless you really really like processing data files |
| 2024-05-13 18:07:59 +0200 | <EvanR> | mdpete, the same thing I did as a beginner. Figure out as soon as possible how to show graphics and make sounds |
| 2024-05-13 18:07:19 +0200 | <c_wraith> | stefan-__: note that for whatever reason, the -haddock flag seems to make installing primitive break. It's not really fully-supported yet... |

| 2024-05-13 18:01:46 +0200 | <mdpete> | I have started to learn basics of programming . I read that there is no best first programming language. I guess Haskell programmers are more into joy of programming. Would you please recommend me as a beginner what you should do if you had the chance to srtart again as a total beginner? |

| 2024-05-13 17:50:52 +0200 | <c_wraith> | ah. there it is. .local/state/cabal/store is the default if it's using XDG paths. |

| 2024-05-13 17:46:36 +0200 | <c_wraith> | you still have a .cabal directory? lucky |
| 2024-05-13 17:46:14 +0200 | <stefan-__> | removed that directory, now the dependencies are rebuilding :) |
| 2024-05-13 17:45:58 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | ignore me :) |
| 2024-05-13 17:45:55 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | oops |
| 2024-05-13 17:45:52 +0200 | <stefan-__> | it seems to build to "~/.cabal/store/ghc-9.8.2/" |
| 2024-05-13 17:45:51 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | you're right |
| 2024-05-13 17:45:47 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | _oh_ |
| 2024-05-13 17:45:37 +0200 | <c_wraith> | tomsmeding: that doesn't build the same docs. |
| 2024-05-13 17:45:15 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | stefan-__: have you tried putting 'documentation: True' in your cabal.project for the project? (If you don't have one yet, you also need 'packages: .' in there) |
| 2024-05-13 17:44:03 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | but that hammer may be somewhat too large :p |
| 2024-05-13 17:43:47 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | stefan-__: you can enable building documentation globally always by setting the 'documentation' key in ~/.cabal/config |

| 2024-05-13 17:42:11 +0200 | <c_wraith> | yeah, you'd need to wipe the directory cabal builds stuff in. I honestly don't know where that is since they started using XDG stuff. I can't find it anymore. |
