Stack overflow in F# 3 45 (6/15/2009 10:23:39 AM) comp.lang.functional Hello people, To get rid of some while-loops and explicit recursions, I'm currently reimplementing the CPS monad in F#. Here is the code: // Cont monads. let contMap f c = fun k -> c (fun x -> k (f x)) ... UTF

State monads in F# 5 44 (5/28/2009 2:37:11 PM) comp.lang.functional Hello people, I'm trying to implement state monads in F# and I'm getting an error message, which I fail to understand. The code is below. The error I'm getting reads: "This expression has type 'c * 'd but ... UTF

Experiment: Church lists in Python 0 40 (1/16/2009 1:34:41 PM) comp.lang.functional Hello there Pythoners, It was almost a week ago, when I got bored and thought, Python is quite a boring language, so I'd need to do some evil functional programming again. I thought, I'd share the result. ;) ... Ertugrul

Experiment: functional concepts in C 352 87 (11/17/2008 11:43:14 AM) comp.lang.c Hello people, I thought it would be funny to try to bring functional concepts into the C language. If anyone is interested, I have published the results on my blog [1]. [1] http://blog.ertes.de/2008/11/obscu... Ertugrul

Functional programming and large objects 5 40 (10/25/2010 12:28:41 AM) comp.lang.functional I don't use functional programming much in my work, and in fact I know little about it. But I find the idea of controlling and minimizing side effects attractive. (It is my understanding that this is one of... no.email5 (294)

Scheme as a virtual machine? 29 49 (10/11/2010 11:49:15 AM) comp.lang.scheme Hello, I'd like to try the idea that Scheme can be considered as a new portable assembler. We could code something in Scheme and then compile it to PHP or Python or Java or whatever. Any suggestions and point... olepar (113)

Non-strict semantics and partial application 4 33 (6/29/2010 10:45:05 AM) comp.lang.functional Hello, I'm implementing a non-strict toy language supporting partial function application, but I've come to realize I'm confused over what non- strictness means. Consider, for example, the K-combinator: K x ... angsoon2010 (2)

java/c/etc. are all "in a monad" 1 55 (2/10/2010 11:09:22 PM) comp.lang.functional i assume that means passing the whole heap around? but the heap wouldn't be copied-with-changes, it would be directly mutated. does the State monad in haskell have some hack in the implementation to let it real... raould (114)

various forms of generic programming? 128 64 (2/9/2010 12:38:26 AM) comp.lang.functional hello the term generic seems to be over-used, and i'm not sure i grok all the uses and/or how they overlap. but anyway, i'm attempting to learn more about the subject. some things i've read [1] make it sound t... raould (114)

LISP vs HASKELL vs PROLOG 295 105 (6/23/2009 10:23:09 PM) comp.lang.lisp I'm not trying to start a flame war about which one is the best. Could anybody explain me each of these languages features and strong points ? ... eltoni.91 (22)

How suited are purely functional programming languages for I/O-intensive and database-related applications? 22 42 (6/11/2009 9:29:22 AM) comp.lang.functional Today, I came across the following site (in Japanese) in which the author made two claims about certain tasks that he believes that purely functional programming languages are weak at. His claims are interesti... DekuDekuplex (181)
