At the heart of the LambdaWars code is the Bot and it is defined in terms of an Automaton. In this talk we will try and get our heads around what this.
By the end, we can hopefully answer the question, what do the following “scary” types mean?
type Bot = ContT Step (Reader DashBoard)
type Automaton = Reader DashBoard Step
data Step = Step { stepCmd :: Command, stepNext :: Automaton}
Suitable for all levels, from Haskell newcomers to experienced hackers. For those of you who know their way round, you can continue hacking away on LambdaWars from the start.
After the talk we can go through the LambdaWars code, explaining how it works and quirks of the code-base and get you coding so bring your laptop.

We just grab a coffee and speak French. Some people have been coming every week for months... it creates a kind of warmth to the group.
