"Advanced" ovestates the content a bit, since they are covering functors, "Monads I" and difference lists as core content.

It is stated to be for second-year students. So presumably there is a basic course for the first year, and this more advanced course for the second year.

A Sudoku solver seems boringly academic to me, though. We used to make console-based games in our FP course.

Et voilà!

Seems more like intro to FP or rather intro to FP in Haskell.

I did most of it. Can recommend.

Very nice intro, no fanaticism, great teaching, good pacing. Pretty much perfect for a beginner.

Among the best ways to get into functional programming.

I found it a bit slow for myself. But great content, no doubt.
