- AnimalMuppet 6y agoWell... I've seen discussions here where someone claims "If it compiles it works" as if that's a universal dogmatic truism for Haskell. Then people poke holes in it, and then the grownup Haskellers show up and say that no, the kids are getting a little carried away in their claims. If it compiles, certain classes of bugs are absent, but that's not the same as it works.
