Haskellers don't so much want to keep the variable names terse as avoid naming the variable at all.
- wtetzner 14y agoWhile that's true, there's a tendency to use short names in pattern matching, since using long names actually makes it harder to read the pattern.
- Evbn 14y agoHaskell code names all identifiers except unused ones place held with '_'. (Unlike perl, which has the day default $_ often in scope) Haskellers completely avoid introducting entities (like function arguments) where they aren't needed.
