3. The use of Haskell

   We will make considerable use of small Haskell programs to describe the mathematical objects we study in this course. One may think of these Haskell programs as type-checked psuedo-code. I will not ask students to write any Haskell code. The source of the Haskell code we study will be available for download, and students are welcome to explore this code if they desire.
