Blog Title

A few of my readers may be wondering: "What is a zeppelin bend?" It's a knot.
It gets more nerdy. The reason I chose a knot, is because one of the coolest things you'll encounter if you learn Haskell is Knot Tying, which is essentially passing the result of a computation into the computation, (Think like a credit card, buy now, pay later). It works as long as you don't peek at the result. You can use it to create loops in data structures in a pure way. In most other languages, you would just use mutable state.
