gollark: I'm at the point of knowing the syntax and basic libraries and stuff, but I have no idea how to write useful code.
gollark: Also monads, which are burritos, oranges in a radioactive spacesuit, and also `Monad m => (a -> m b) -> m a -> m b`.
gollark: I find it very hard to reason about code which frequently ends up chopping up infinite lists.
gollark: Haskell code is very confusing because of its crazy use of abstraction everywhere, somewhat alien (but nice and clean) syntax, and the whole lazy evaluation thing.
gollark: ```haskellprimes = filterPrime [2..] where filterPrime (p:xs) = p : filterPrime [x | x <- xs, x `mod` p /= 0]````primes` here has been defined as the infinite list of all prime numbers.
