Overview

This book presents the eight tutorial lectures given at the Second International School on Advanced Functional Programming, held in Olympia, WA, USA, in August 1996.

After many years of development, functional programming languages have matured to a point where they can be used for much larger applications than has been typical in the past. These tutorial notes have been written for students and professionals in software engineering who are interested in exploring beyond the elementary concepts of functional programming and in progressing towards large-scale programming and structured software.
