I am a final year undergraduate student of Mathematics and (Theoretical) Computer Science studying in Chennai Mathematical Institute, India. My interests in computer science are along the lines of programming languages and logic.
My interest in functional programming began as a leisure activity, but became more serious when I took my first introductory Haskell Course. As time progressed, I educated myself through the means of several internet blogs and other online resources. I also took a follow up course titled "Implementation of Functional Programming" where we discussed the challenges of the implementational aspects of languages with functional abstraction. In the subsequent year, I offered to be the teaching assistant of the same introductory Haskell course which was my initial inspiration. Not only did I tutor this course in my institution, but also over online courses conducted by NPTEL, twice in a row.
Last summer, I interned at a technological start-up VacationLabs, Goa where we used functional p
