Computer Science Video Lectures

I was about to post video lectures in Business and Management when I found an amazing collection of undergraduate (and a few graduate) Computer Science video lecture courses.

Don't forget to check my other posts on Computer Science andTheoretical Computer Science video lectures.

Here are this month's video lectures, most of them from New Jersey Institute of Technology and some from Google, and other places


A Taste of Haskell (Functional Programming Language)

• Haskell Video Lecture Part I
• Haskell Video Lecture Part II
• Lecture Notes (.pdf)
• Description:Haskell is the world's leading purely functional programming language that offers a radical and elegant attack on the whole business of writing programs. In the last two or three years there has been an explosion of interest in Haskell, and it is now being used for a bewildering variety of applications.In this tutorial, the lecturer will try to show you why programming in Haskell is such fun, and how it makes you think about programming in a new way.
  He's going to use xmonad as his running example; it's an X11 window manager written entirely in 500 lines of Haskell. Based on xmonad he will show you how to
  
  • write functional programs
  • test them using QuickCheck
  • write imperative programs
  • call foreign functions
  • use Haskell for scripting applications
  The lecturer won't assume you know any functional programming at all, but he will assume that you are an experienced professional programmer, so he'll will move along quite briskly.
