A list of overly-generic terms to avoid when naming variables and resources. More to come as I find them.
  • type
  • state
  • status
  • data (yes, and datum, datas, etc.)
  • correct, especially in tests. What is correctness in this context?
  • object

Hoodlums exercise suggested by Andres Löh.

From http://www.meetup.com/hoodlums/events/91349692/

Define a function cat that takes an arbitrary number of strings and returns the concatenation of all strings. You'll need the FlexibleInstances extension (but should not need any others). When calling in GHCi, you will have to annotate the result type of the function. Examples:

> cat :: String 
"" 
> cat "foo" "bar" :: String 
"foobar" 
> cat "Haskell" "Hoodlums" "Meetup" :: String
