I've found article arguments incorrect - what they describe as Haskell's features and more
are easily available in other languages as well. Strictly enforcing function style on the other hand looks to me as un-feature. From my long experience strictly enforcing any particular paradigm/style in programming is amounts to plugging round holes with the square pegs.
- warcher 6y agoI'm a partisan, of course, but I always found ocaml to be the practical choice for ML-style functional languages. All the functional type-y goodness without being shackled to it, you can let yourself off the hook if you need to, you can just write a dang loop if that's what needs doing, compiles down to native, just a good practical mix. Other than Jane Street, nobody much uses it though, so that's that.
