  Haskell Curry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Haskell Brooks Curry (September 12, 1900, Millis, Massachusetts - September 1, 1982, State College, Pennsylvania) was an American mathematician and logician.
The son of educator Samuel Silas Curry, he was educated at Harvard University and received a Ph.D. from Göttingen in 1930, under the supervision of David Hilbert.
The functional computer languages Haskell and Curry are named after him, as is the concept of currying in combinatory logic, the lambda calculus, and functional programming.

Haskell Brooks Curry (September 12, 1900 - September 1, 1982) was an American mathematician and logician.
Curry's main work was in mathematical logic, especially in the theory of formal systems and processes - combinatory logic, the foundation for functional programming languages.

 Curry   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
A curry is any of a great variety of distinctively spiced dishes, best-known in Indian and Thai cuisine, but curry has been adopted into all of the mainstream cuisines of the Asia-Pacific area, from Pakistan in the west and even eventually to Japan.
As a side note, the famous curry sauce (often associated with the city of Liverpool) that is often served warm as a condiment with other dishes such as chips, was actually popularised by Chinese takeaways, not Indian restaurants, and relies heavily on ground ginger for its flavouring.
Curry powder, also known as masala powder, is a spice mixture of widely varying composition developed by the British during the Raj as a means of approximating the taste of Indian cuisine at home.

Curry graduated with a Master's Degree in physics from Harvard in 1924 but by now he realised that the subject for him was not physics but it was mathematics.
Veblen assured Curry that this was a positive, rather than negative, discovery and, after Alexander had informed him that Schönfinkel was in a mental hospital and therefore not continuing his line of research, Curry sought advice on who would be the best Ph.D. supervisor.

 Preface
At the 1997 Haskell Workshop in Amsterdam, it was decided that a stable variant of Haskell was needed; this stable language is the subject of this Report, and is called "Haskell 98".
Haskell 98 was conceived as a relatively minor tidy-up of Haskell 1.4, making some simplifications, and removing some pitfalls for the unwary.
Haskell was created, and continues to be sustained, by an active community of researchers and application programmers.

Other countries which have their own varieties of curry include: Bangladesh, Cambodia, Burma, Japan, Pakistan, and Singapore; and curry powder is used as an incidental ingredient in other cuisines, including for example a "curry sauce" (sauce au curry, sometimes even au cari) variation of the classic French béchamel.

 Curry's Paradox
Curry's paradox, so named for its discoverer, namely Haskell B. Curry, is a paradox within the family of so-called paradoxes of self-reference (or paradoxes of circularity).
Unlike the liar and Russell paradoxes Curry's paradox is negation-free; it may be generated irrespective of one's theory of negation.
What Curry's paradox shows is that not just any old paraconsistent logic will do; in particular, on pain of triviality, no connective in the language can satisfy contraction or absorption and support the T-scheme or Naive comprehension scheme.

 H2G2   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Haskell is a functional programming language named after Haskell Curry, the developer of the lambda calculus upon which the language is based.
It was standardised in early 1999 with the introduction of Haskell 98, mostly solving the problem which had previously arisen of multiple and incompatible implementations of Haskell.
The lineage of Haskell can be traced back to the 1920s, when Haskell Curry and Alonzo Church were developing the lambda calculus, which formed a partial basis of Lisp in the 1960s.

 Seldin Plans to Put More of Curry’s Files Online
Haskell Curry was an American mathematician and logician who lived from 1900 to 1982.
When Curry was a graduate student at Harvard University in the mid-1920s, he began organizing his school notes, personal memos and theories with a card index system.
In the 1920s, Curry’s research on combinatory logic was so cutting-edge that no one at Harvard University could supervise his dissertation on the subject and many people advised him to choose another research area.
