Notes
This is my first attempt at writing Haskell code. I've always wanted to try a formal functional programming language, and I've heard of Haskell through using tools like XMonad and Pandoc. Since I use Pandoc regularly I thought Haskell would be a useful skill to have in case I ever need to contribute. I also am interested in the functional programming paradigm and want to adapt my thought processes to write cleaner code. I thought day 1 would be a good day to try Haskell, and something that would've taken me 10 minutes in any programming language I know really took me a long time. This is definitely not good, clean, idiomatic Haskell, but it is a start!
