Haskell: Purity, Laziness, and Advanced Types

The source provides a comprehensive examination of the purely functional programming language Haskell, focusing on its core features and paradigms. It details the history and evolution of Haskell from its origins in the late 1980s to the current status of the GHC reference implementation. A significant portion is dedicated to explaining Haskell's functional model, specifically its reliance on purity and lazy evaluation, and how it manages side effects using Monads and the IO type to maintain safety and explicitness. The text also thoroughly covers the strong static type system, including the power of type inference, Algebraic Data Types (ADTs) and pattern matching for data modeling, and advanced features like Generalized Algebraic Data Types (GADTs) and type families. Finally, the source explores common idioms and patterns used in Haskell programming, contrasting them with imperative approaches.
