Meeting reminder and abstract

September 10, 2007 on 9:33 pm | By Neil | In , |

Just a quick reminder that the next London HUG meeting is coming up on Thursday 20th September at City University from 6:30PM. Matthew and Tristan have sent me an abstract for their talk, as follows:

Take 2 PhD students who have never programmed in the IO Monad before, lock them in an office for 3 months, and let them loose with Haskell. In this talk we show our attempt at writing a classic tron game with a twist - and show some pitfalls we fell into and lessons learned. We then took some time to reflect, and decided to start to remake a nuclear war game, again with a twist - and will show our progress, plans and invite discussion on design idioms.

OpenGL demos included.”

Also, Dr Ross Paterson will be giving a talk on finger trees.

See you there!

  2. Tim: No, the room number for this meeting is A205. However, there will be a sign at the entrance to the building.
