- Prerequisites
- IB015 Non-Imperative Programming
Pre-requisities for enrolling in the course are to be familiar with Haskell in the scope of the IB015 Non-Imperative Programming course and to have a positive attitude towards functional programming. - Course Enrolment Limitations
- The course is also offered to the students of the fields other than those the course is directly associated with.
The capacity limit for the course is 30 student(s).
Current registration and enrolment status: enrolled: 0/30, only registered: 0/30, only registered with preference (fields directly associated with the programme): 0/30 - fields of study / plans the course is directly associated with
- there are 17 fields of study the course is directly associated with, display
- Course objectives
- Students will significantly extend their knowledge of functional programming. At the end of the course, they should be able to solve non-trivial programming problems using Haskell and to be familiar with practical use of this functional language.

- Teaching methods
- The course is organized as a series of two-hour seminars wherein topics of application functional programming in practice are presented to students. Apart from that, it is requested to solve five homework assignments regarding the discussed subjects.
- Assessment methods
- In order to successful completion of the course, it is necessary to obtain at least 50 % points from homework assignments. The attendance of seminars is not compulsory, but highly recommended.
