Haskell Draughts

I began this several months after a class I took on functional programming in Haskell. Learning Haskell was a huge eye opener in terms of thinking about programming and seeing what is out there. I’ve been working on it off (mostly off) and on since then, and finished a playable implementation this week. Especially after […]

Contest Fail

Last weekend I had a few hours to spare, so I decided to work on one of the problems from CodeSprint2, InterviewStreet’s contest to find the best programming talent. Since I didn’t have long to work, I decided to try to complete the algorithm problem with the highest value. I chose to work on Count […]

Haskell Poetry Parser

For our final project for CIS552: Advanced Programming, my partner and I implemented a poetry parser. The program identifies a body of text piped from STDIN as one of: haiku, rhyming poem (aba, or aabba), sonnet, or limerick. The project source is located at: https://github.com/jamiely/poetry-parser. The project involved using the CMU Pronouncing Dictionary found here, creating […]

Pattern Matching in Haskell

I’ve only been taking one class this semester. It’s an advanced programming course focusing on the functional language Haskell. While I was familiar with some functional concepts such as map, fold, and currying from using Javascript, and lazy-evaluation from dabbling with Clojure, this class has introduced a number of new, intriguing concepts. Not necessarily a […]
