ultravoices posted:computerphile just posted their what is a monad video, which was somewhat helpful, but stay for the end for the presenter making bitchy spergy functional programmer comment about why they are called monads and not something more understandable for mere computer programmers. computerphile is kind of bad lol

DELETE CASCADE posted:i was taking a programming languages class in college, where they reviewed different paradigms including oop, functional, and logic programming. the functional part was done in ML and took up most of the class. about 90% of the students hated it, or at least didn't get it, and couldn't wait to go back to java. i was in the 10% that loved it! ended up doing an fp undergrad research project with the prof of that class, which helped me get into grad school I did a coursera programming languages course that starts with ML and I hated it for a while but I assumed it was mostly because of the static typing. I was definitely not used to it back then. But now that I think about it, I guess it was more than just that, it was the whole "humbling" experience of learning functional programming that got to me.
