- pron 10y agoAny of the MLs, really. Their type systems aren't necessarily equivalent to Haskell's, but given the lack of evidence for Haskell's superiority over pretty much any modern language, I doubt those differences make for even a marginal difference. The big thing about Haskell is that it's pure functional. Rust's type system is definitely in that ballpark, too, and maybe even Kotlin's.
