The Haskell Learning Curve[edit]
The Haskell learning curve is sometimes criticized for being too steep. Here is a nice graphical illustration by Ronald Guida to help you visualize it.
Programmer's Nirvana plane --------------- Categoric plane --------------- Co-Monadic plane (Co- everything) ----------------- Applicative plane ---------------------- Pointless-pointfree plane ------------------------------ Monadic plane (don't get trapped) --------------- --------------- Functional plane (Haskell et al!) --------------- --------------- Imperative plane ASM, C#, Java :) --------------- --------------- Physical plane (e.g. Silicon)
