Contents:In the bachelor courses Functional Programming and Grammars and Parsing a basic knowledge of functional programming techniques has been introduced. This course provides a follow up, and aims at showing specific functional programing techniques, patterns, libraries and tools. Many of the reserarch projects inside the department make use of functional programming , and this course aims at making you a proficient user of all the available programming environment.

To be provided. but all available through the internet and electronic libraries. See web page for further details.
Course form:The course will tbe given in the form of a seminar in which we jointly study papers in the area of functional programming. Everyone will present a couple of conference or journal papers or papers closely related to research being done in the department. Each presenter will prepare some exercises for fellow students, and mark them afterwards.
Depending on the number of participants we will decide on the final form of the presentations. An initial round of topics will be assigned at the first meeting. Currently we aim at a form in which each person gives a presentation twice.
If the number of participants becomes too large we will switch to a more conventional form of lecturing.
