what i would like is a meta-tutorial

a list of questions about haskell, what does this do, do you understand this etc

and if you say no, it points you at a tutorial which explains it -- ndm on #haskell

One size does not fit all! The meta-tutorial aims to help you find the Haskell tutorials that you need.

You are new to functional programming
- Tutorials/Programming_Haskell
You have programmed in other functional languages before
- A Gentle Introduction?
You just want to see what Haskell looks like at a glance
- How to read Haskell
- A Tour of the Haskell Syntax

You are new to Haskell
You don't mind Haskell syntax, but you don't neccesarily feel comfortable working with monads (for example, with do notation)
- You could have invented monads! (And Maybe you Already Have!)
You learn best by doing exercises
You learn by metaphor or analogy
- Understanding monads
You understand category theory and you want to know what's the link between category theory monads and Haskell monads
