Update

There is another crate out in the wild which is called higher. It does a lot of the things that I wanted to do here with the lubeck crate. I figured, that it would be better for the community to only have one such crate in active development so I'm just going to link to it here and abandon the development of this crate. This doesn't mean however, that the book goal is abandoned aswell.

Goals

This repository tries to continue the work started in JasonShin's crate fp-core.rs.

The goal of this repository is to make concepts from functional languages like Haskell available in Rust in form of a library while keeping them as easy-to-use as possible.

A secondary goal is the creation of an accompanying book. This book will not only document the library and its components but at the same serves as a learning resource. It is meant to be used by people who want to get their feet wet with functional programming in general and have no prior experience.
