edd

1993–1994

Functional programming lectures at university...

thumper

1994

Functional programming at uni. Not since.

marcelor

1998

Learnt it in college and taught it shortly afterwards. Really funny language (I liked math a lot).

johnny723

1999

Another computer science course about functional programming.

Jenni

2003–

honzakral

2003

Only a short affair in school, would like to learn it again if there is ever time...

2004–

wilane

2005–

Cool

brettsky

2005

Loosely taught a once-a-week course on the language.

jackboot7

2005–

Programming Languages course. Functional Programming course.

ghoseb

2005–

skyl

2006–

Adapted a knight's tour program to be n-dimensional .. need to find that old code and get back into Haskell so I can be awesome again.

ch0llima

2007

Used it for a logical deduction exercise at University. Had to use the "Hugs" system to correctly work through formal logical arguments. It melted my brain. I don't understand it at all.

2008

Functional programming lectures at university...

greyfade

Starting to have fun, now...

twhitton

2008–

Man, I have tried to learn and love this language. It's like a magic wand in the hands of a beginner. So seductive but likely to destroy you... WTF is a monad anyway?! C'mon guys.

stephen_mcd

2009–

Wrote an experiment paint program using wx - loved the elegance and mathematic nature, can't wait to get back to it when time permits

shywolf9982

2009–

Slowly trying to learn it. I love its closeness to math. Sadly, I don't have much time to dedicate to it.

Kami

2009–

Looked at Haskell to learn more about functional programming. Definitely different then imperative programming, but you can learn a lot by looking at different paradigms, languages and technologies.

davidpaccoud

2009

Love Haskell purity and how close it is from Maths. It helped me improve my functional programming skills but my brain hurts too fast.

isardana

2009–

I love how purely mathematical it is. The over-reliance on recursion can be a bit of a nightmare especially if you are used to languages like Java but you can write really small yet powerful programs once you know your way around.

mantovani

2009–

ygd

2009–

This is probably my favorite language. If I could only figure out how to use it.

Zak

2009–

I taught myself Haskell to purge my mind after a particularly nasty PHP project. Highly recommended as a learning experience, even if you don't end up using the language for real work (I'm still on the fence about doing that).

alexsuraci

2009–

My favorite language, period. Mindblowing at first, now I like to believe I have a fairly solid grasp of it. The expressiveness that can be achieved even with such strictness and purity, coupled with the raw performance, is astounding.

bittercoder

2009–

I've been learning Haskel since mid 2009. Keep picking it up / putting it down, but like it's terseness.

gtani7

2009–

2nd try, after looking at erlang, F#, ocaml, and, hey, it makes sense!

jmillikin

2009–

An excellent language, slightly marred by some poor early decisions ('fail', list-based 'String', the 'Int' type). The library selection is absolutely dire, but this is improving as more developers contribute. I believe that Haskell will have significant market share within the next 10 years.

dasil003

2009–

I finally bought the Real World Haskell book and I'm working through it now. Pure functional programming is of great interest to me, especially since I spend my days working in Ruby which is in many ways the antithesis of Haskell.

quakehead

2009–

I know how to add two numbers and define functions. Does that count? :P

2009–2010

2010–

Messed up my brain. Gave up on it, restarted and gave up again. But what I learned with it influences my everyday work. I haven't given up on you Haskell!

iamteem

2010–

My Programming Language for the year.

Tried to learn it once or twice. May try again.
