Monoids + Haskell + Welcome summer with FT #7 , good beer and awesome people !

6:OO pm - 6:45 pm "Type Classes in Haskell"

Why bother? What it is and why it was invented. How it works. Do we really need a new kind of classes? We will try to answer those questions briefly.We will mention basic constructs of Haskell typeclass, elementary built-in typeclasses and most widely used. From a beginner to beginners, no PhD required.

Speaker: Paweł Sączawa

Paweł Sączawa is always curious how things work and why they were designed this way. FP apprentice, fresh Haskell enthusiast. He is currently working professionally in Scala for Scalac.

6:45 - 7:15 Networking break

7:15 pm - 8:00 pm "It's just a monoid in category of endofunctors"

Simple, isn't it? And all you wanted to know was "WTF is a monad?". If you're just a simple programmer like me, this phrase is probably completely meaningless to you. And I will tell you a secret: it is also almost completely useless. But sounds clever. During this talk we will try to translate this gibberish into simple programming concepts, so no nasty mathematician can bully you again.

Speaker: Wojciech Pituła

I'm a Scala developer currently handling big data problems at Nordea Bank. Fascinated by functional programming, especially when it makes my brain sweat. In my spare time... I write more software and try to optimize my life. http://w.pitula.me
