For someone practicing OO #programming for years, what books/resources they should pick to learn #functional programming?

java #javascript #scala #haskell #go #kotlin #python

If you specifically want to learn Haskell (and I think Haskell is probably the best way to learn functional programming), Learn You a Haskell for Great Good is the best way to go. It's a practical book that explains a little bit of theory in a really easy to understand way. And, it's free online!

The "Red book" for Scala is good.
