Book thread?

I've only started to read intensively recently. Currently in the middle of Brothers Karamazov. Finding it very difficult to get through, but interesting nonetheless.

I'm also reading Introduction to Functional Calculus through Lambda Calculus. I've been doing functional programming for a while, but never tackled the theory.

I have been working on my collection of books I want to learn from. I just started getting into self-learning. I'm going to mainly focus on STEM, some social stuff, and business. I'm currently redoing all of mathematics from algebra - calculus to get a super-firm basis and clear up anything I might be fuzzy on. I know I have a long way but you got to start somewhere!

>I've been doing functional programming for a while

What have you been using as a language OP? Haskell? Lua?

Clojure and Scheme for functional languages.

For imperative programming, I'm competent in Python and C.

Between these, I can cover pretty much any base- systems programming, one-off scripting, and lots of libraries (Clojure/Java interop is really nice. You get the ecosystem without having to use the language.)

Looking to learn Rust.
