Just wondering if everyone is using the suggested book, Programming in Haskell by Gram Hutton. Don't mean to rant, but the book seems to confuse some very simple concepts and breeze over some things that really deserve a few paragraphs.
I'm finding that Learn You a Haskell and Real World Haskell are much more useful, and don't intermix notation and code examples like this book does in Chapter 3. Maybe I'm just dumb, but I can't actually type the ¬ character, so why it it in the REPL example images?
Sometimes I'd negate with "not" and sometimes through evaluation "x /= y". Isn't it that simple, or am I missing something?
