I talked about Haskell briefly a couple times IRL. Both times people initially thought I was talking about Pascal.

Dominoes posted:Is learning Haskell intended to be an order of magnitude more difficult than other programming languages? Haskell is probably only a magnitude harder than other programming languages when you're already deeply familiar w/ imperative/OOP programming languages. Usually when picking up a new language you just learn new syntax to do the same drat thing you've always done and can re-apply all of your learned experience in a straightforward manner. You've already learned much of what there is to know about the language by having learned prior languages in the same paradigm. When learning a pure functional language with a non-strict evaluation strategy, you can't just re-apply your learned experience in a straightforward manner and have to a learn a bunch of novel concepts. comedyblissoption fucked around with this message at 06:35 on Jun 19, 2015 |
