Haskell Curry

Haskell Curry was an American mathematician and logician known for his work in combinatory logic, a mathematical framework for understanding computation without using variables. He developed the concept of "currying," which transforms functions that take multiple arguments into a sequence of functions, each taking a single argument. This idea is fundamental in functional programming languages like Haskell. Curry's contributions have significantly influenced mathematical logic and computability theory, particularly in understanding how functions can be constructed and applied, laying the groundwork for modern programming and theoretical computer science.
