| 2026-02-15 11:40:30 +0100 | <tomsmeding> | I guess also int-e ^ :p |
| 2026-02-15 11:39:07 +0100 | <Guest83> | Guys thank you for your help. I will come back with m learnings shortly |

| 2026-02-15 11:28:16 +0100 | <ski> | you're welcome |
| 2026-02-15 11:27:42 +0100 | <Guest83> | Thank you for making me feel so welcome here. I am curious to start my journey. |
| 2026-02-15 11:27:07 +0100 | <ski> | (well, maybe a variant of it ? .. "1940" ?) |

| 2026-02-15 11:26:51 +0100 | <srazkvt> | yea, from my experience haskell people are generally nice when it comes to helping out newcomers |

| 2026-02-15 11:26:43 +0100 | <ski> | yea, that's the first lecture of the CIS194 course |
| 2026-02-15 11:26:24 +0100 | <Guest83> | I found this resource. Looks like a good start https://www.seas.upenn.edu/~cis1940/spring13/lectures/01-intro.html |
| 2026-02-15 11:25:42 +0100 | <ski> | asking people for help can be quite useful, when you'tr stumbling over something |
| 2026-02-15 11:24:59 +0100 | <Guest83> | Thank you, Ski. I am liking the functional programming approach. I hope I stick around with Haskell for long because i easily get demotivated if I hit a roadblock in my learning. |
| 2026-02-15 11:24:48 +0100 | <srazkvt> | but i don't go much outside of those |
| 2026-02-15 11:24:29 +0100 | <srazkvt> | i have a few usernames i switch between, either this username, or a variant of it, or just my first name for more casual chats with friends |
| 2026-02-15 11:23:39 +0100 | <ski> | it should change your nickname |
| 2026-02-15 11:23:33 +0100 | <ski> | /nick myNewNickname |
| 2026-02-15 11:23:24 +0100 | <ski> | if you type in |

| 2026-02-15 11:23:06 +0100 | <ski> | well, at least people who stick around, keep chatting, here |
| 2026-02-15 11:22:46 +0100 | <ski> | most people tend to stick to one (or sometimes a few) nicknames |
| 2026-02-15 11:22:14 +0100 | <Guest83> | Sure, Ski. Much appreciated. Do you all use the same nicknames? |
| 2026-02-15 11:21:17 +0100 | <ski> | (do note that it may at times take a little while for people to notice your question, so i'd recommend waiting at least half an hour) |
| 2026-02-15 11:20:52 +0100 | <ski> | oh, and you can ask here, if you have questions about particular things |
| 2026-02-15 11:20:23 +0100 | <ski> | is a course, which has exercises you can try |

| 2026-02-15 11:20:15 +0100 | <ski> | @where CIS194 |
| 2026-02-15 11:20:09 +0100 | <ski> | doesn't have exercises, though |
| 2026-02-15 11:20:02 +0100 | <ski> | you could try "Learn You a Haskell for Great Good!" <https://learnyouahaskell.github.io/>, if you want. it covers basics |
| 2026-02-15 11:18:39 +0100 | <Guest83> | Great Ski. Thanks for the guidance |
| 2026-02-15 11:18:27 +0100 | <ski> | there's other nice books, as well |
| 2026-02-15 11:18:23 +0100 | <Guest83> | I don't mind learning from scratch |
| 2026-02-15 11:18:21 +0100 | <ski> | the book "Haskell : The Craft of Functional Programming" by Simon Thompson is a nice intro |
| 2026-02-15 11:17:59 +0100 | <Guest83> | Read about good things of functional programming so thought of giving it a try |

| 2026-02-15 11:17:35 +0100 | <ski> | if you're new to functional programming, it will be a bit like learning to program from scratch all over again |
| 2026-02-15 11:17:10 +0100 | <Guest83> | Yes Python |
| 2026-02-15 11:17:04 +0100 | <ski> | do you know any other programming language ? |
| 2026-02-15 11:16:35 +0100 | <Guest83> | I am on the getting started page of Haskell |
