Next Meeting: Introduction to OCaml

Our next meeting is at 18:00 (6pm) November 6th 2012 (2012/11/06) in room CSC 2-49 in the Computer Science building at the University of Alberta.

Abram Hindle will be introducing and demonstrating the OCaml language (wikipedia). If you have an interest in functional programming languages like Haskell but are looking for more strictness perhaps OCaml will interest you?

Inspired by SML but with some OO thrown in, OCaml offers modularity both in terms of module composition and object oriented structures.

So please join us for an introduction to OCaml and some of the SML philosophy. OCaml gives you the option of a non-lazy (strict) staticly-typed, typed-inferenced, functional language.

The Edmonton Functional Programming User's Group (EFPUG) is a group of Edmontonians dedicated to discussing, learning and teaching about functional programming languages such as Haskell, Scheme, Scala, SML, OCaml, and the functional parts of other languages such as Go, Javascript, Python, Perl or Ruby. EFPUG meets monthly on the first Tuesday of month.

Welcome to the new home of EFPUG

We've moved to blogspot to organize all our efforts on github, google groups, google calendar and other services. This will likely be the permanent hub of the Edmonton Functional Programmers User Group.
