Now I know I said that I wouldn’t venture down the road of quick help guides like Learn Java in 7 days, but I thought this resource could be useful down the road and so that’s why I’m posting it here.
Seven Languages in Seven Weeks
It’s a free book in pdf format that covers the following languages: Clojure, Haskell, Io, Prolog, Scala, Erlang, and Ruby.
Now an initial glance at the languages really showed my lack of understanding in this area and the need to maybe approach the process in a more structured way.
What did like was the notion of learning a new programming language each year, an idea that seem to stem from a book called The Pragmatic Programmer.
