Paul Roe · Enlighten: Theses (The University of Glasgow) · 1991
I am greatly indebted to Simon Peyton Jones, my supervisor, for his encouragement and technical assistance. His overwhelming enthusiasm was of great support to me. I particularly want to thank Simon and Geoff Burn for commenting on earlier drafts of this thesis. Through his excellent lecturing Cohn Runciman initiated my interest in functional programming. I am grateful to Phil Trinder for his simulator, on which mine is based, and Will Partain for his help with LaTex and graphs. I would like to thank the Science and Engineering Research Council of Great Britain for their financial support. Finally, I would like to thank Michelle, whose culinary skills supported me whilst I was writing-up.The Imagination the only nation worth defending a nation without alienation a nation whose flag is invisible and whose borders are forever beyond the horizon a nation whose motto is why have one or the other when you can have one the other and both
