Best practises tips

Tips you can improve your Haskell program

Week 1

• In haskell, if we don't name the variable in pattern matching, we tend to use (x : xs) as a convention.

• Indentation

• -1 and (-1)

• do we mix test with code?

• align symbols

• align exports

• function application, function composition (.) and brackets

• (.) and $

Week 2

• Maybe folding with pattern match is a better choice here to avoid partial function

• do notation vs applicative style

• pure instead of return

• x >>= pure is the same as x

• partial functions

• align if else then

• align list in multiple lines

• view patterns
