recursion-scheme-talk
A collection of talks explaining recursion schemes for functional programming in Haskell and Scala.
What is recursion-scheme-talk?
Recursion Scheme Talks is a collection of presentations that teach recursion schemes, a functional programming technique for structuring recursive programs using fixed-point types and reusable patterns. It demonstrates how to eliminate explicit recursion in code and apply these patterns to real problems like compiler design. The talks cover implementations in both Haskell and Scala.
Functional programmers working with Haskell or Scala who want to understand advanced recursion techniques, particularly those building compilers, interpreters, or complex recursive data structures.
Provides practical, example-driven explanations of recursion schemes that bridge theory and application, with multiple talk versions showing evolving approaches to teaching these concepts effectively.
