CMSC 433: Programming Language Technologies and Paradigms
Spring 2025
Lectures:
Tuesday & Thursday, 3.30pm Eastern - 4.45pm Eastern
CSI 1115
Description: Students will be introduced to a range of modern formal methods and software engineering practices, focusing on Dafny and Haskell. The first part of the course will look at Dafny, a verification-aware programming language that is used heavily at Amazon: students will learn different techniques for writing down precise specifications of desired system behavior and for proving that specifications hold of software artifacts. The second part of the course will focus on Haskell, with the goal of implementing a miniature version of Dafny split up in different exercises throughout the course of the semester. Knowledge of functional programming in the form of OCaml (from 330) is assumed, but not prior knowledge of Haskell or Dafny.
