Haskell Cookbook

Overview of this book

Haskell is a purely functional language that has the great ability to develop large and difficult, but easily maintainable software. Haskell Cookbook provides recipes that start by illustrating the principles of functional programming in Haskell, and then gradually build up your expertise in creating industrial-strength programs to accomplish any goal. The book covers topics such as Functors, Applicatives, Monads, and Transformers. You will learn various ways to handle state in your application and explore advanced topics such as Generalized Algebraic Data Types, higher kind types, existential types, and type families. The book will discuss the association of lenses with type classes such as Functor, Foldable, and Traversable to help you manage deep data structures. With the help of the wide selection of examples in this book, you will be able to upgrade your Haskell programming skills and develop scalable software idiomatically.

Using hashsets and sorted sets in redis to create a Trie

In this recipe, we will be using hedis to create simple trie in Redis. We will a use hashset to store an object, and store its searchable index in the sorted set in redis. We will be using the prefix trie to create a searchable index. For example, if we are searching for "APPLE", we will index all prefixes ("A","AP","APP","APPL", and "APPLE") in the index. Whenever a user enters a string to search, we will be able to look up our index and get the result.

Getting ready

Start the Redis server, and note down the connection info. In this recipe, we will assume that Redis is working on the same machine at the port...
