This document contains notes on category theory in the context of (functional) programming. Originally they were lecture notes for a seminar hosted at Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica, the national research centre for mathematics and computer science in the Netherlands. The main reason for compiling these notes is to provide a way to gain familiarity with concepts of category theory (and other branches of mathematics) that apply in a broad sense to the field of functional programming.
