Description
Ruby, Io, Prolog, Scala, Erlang, Clojure, Haskell. With Seven Languages in Seven Weeks, by Bruce A. Tate, youll go beyond the syntax-and beyond the 20-minute tutorial youll find someplace online. This book has an audacious goal: to present a meaningful exploration of seven languages within a single book. Rather than serve as a complete reference or installation guide, Seven Languages hits whats essential and unique about each language.

Among this group of seven, youll explore the most critical programming models of our time. Learn the dynamic typing that makes Ruby, Pyth
