Programming Languages are the duct tape, bricks, mortar and steel of the information age. Over the last thirty years, a variety of languages with diverse features have been developed, expressing radically different perspectives of the idea of computation. CSE 130 is an introduction to some of these perspectives, as well as the fundamental concepts of languages. We shall focus in particular on one paradigm – functional programming as embodied in the lambda calculus and the Haskell language. Many students will be encountering this paradigm and these languages for the first time. As with spoken languages, these are best absorbed by immersing yourself in the different environments and practicing your skills by experimentation.
