Design and Implementation Lessons from a CSV Library

A conference talk from YOW! 2018 explores the design and implementation challenges of creating a CSV parsing library in Haskell. Dive into functional programming concepts as George Wilson, a Functional Programming Engineer at CSIRO's Data61, shares valuable insights from building a robust CSV processing solution. Learn about the technical decisions, trade-offs, and lessons learned during the development process, with practical examples demonstrating how functional programming principles can be applied to solve real-world data processing problems. Discover approaches to handling common CSV parsing challenges, error management, and performance optimization while gaining a deeper understanding of functional programming design patterns in practice.
