Actuarial Programming

Stumble upon this interesting website. Interesting idea. Anyone who likes keeping some question marks in their minds must check it out!

My solution to the first question:

foldl (+) 0 [x | x<-[1..1000], x `mod` 3 == 0 || x `mod` 5 == 0]

Haskell is a beautiful language. I love Python too, but I fell in love with Haskell at first glance.

However, my problem is that I don’t know how to make use of it. Of course, I am definitely an amateur in programming, having had some programming courses in Uni, but mainly relied on internet resources. But I can figure out more ways of using Python.

So far, what I can do with haskell is to use it for office automation. Yeah, I kinda of use it the same way I used python.

I am a actuarial student, most of my stuff is in Excel; for actuarial computing, we use specialized actuairal software. How can I use Haskell in a more meaningful way?

How do you use Haskell? Especially when you are not a programmer. Thanks to whoever shares.
