You're welcome. And if you really want to get into functional programming or Haskell, I still recommend getting a book, rather than slogging throught PDFs and online tutorials. And although I admire your persistance, I'll temper your expectations by stating that, while I personally like Haskell, it is only an incremental improvement. The language is nicer, but Perl still wins hand-down when it comes to libraries, finding people to do maintenance, etc. And Haskell does have its own warts (Laziness induced space leaks for instance). So while you may still want to pursue it for intellectual reasons, don't expect that functional programming will make you twice as much money or somesuch.
