Both Assembler and Haskell target native code - what you can do with one you can achieve, perhaps more clumsily, in the other. The difference between the two ultimately comes down to syntax.
- noir-york 10y agoI get the sarcasm but yes that's true for Turing complete language. Maybe my meaning was not conveyed clearly enough; I was speaking within the context of the thread which was narrower. In practical terms, F# and C# both target the .Net VM. A more apt comparison would be between, say, PHP and C#, or Prolog and C. All Turing complete, but its not practical to use one instead of the other for particular tasks; its highly impractical to write a device driver in PHP.
