Quotes of the Week
* Peter: I hardly know Haskell, but I can already write some code
much faster and easier than I could do in C/C++ (and I've been
programming 2 decades in that language)
* Miguel Mitrofanov: Since NaN /= NaN, I think, we should decipher
'NaN' as 'Not a NaN'
* Achim Schneider: The essence of non-strictness, though, is another
kind of story. Like a golem plowing half of the country until you
remember that you placed him a bit absent-mindedly into your
backyard and said 'plow', that still won't plow mountains. The
essence of strictness is easy, though: get stuck on a stone, fall
over and continue moving until you break.
* monochrom: OCaml tells you 'map f xs is bad because it takes O(n)
space'. Haskell tells you 'map f xs' is good because it takes O(1)
space
* ddarius: It says *right on the box* that it it's intended for
*both* research and applications.
* Clifford Beshers: Why Haskell? Medical researchers announced today
that MRI studies reveal that the structure of the human brain is
significantly different in adolescence than adulthood.
* Larry O'Brien: I really had a hard time refactoring my Ruby into a
packrat parser. This was due, in no small part, because of the
difficulty in understanding the types being built-up in the data
structure. The paper, in explicitly-typed Haskell: clear as a
bell. My code's behavior on unit tests: virtually
indistinguishable from random.
* SuperGrade: Haskell kind of herds you into functional programming.
There are advantages to this manner of coding, and I'm getting to
thinking you should attempt code this way almost all of the time,
regardless of language.
* Berlin Brown: Haskell is readable, fast, and expressive. I like it.
* Yaakov Nemoy: Changing the type of a function in Python will lead
to strange runtime errors that take some work to debug, whereas,
when I tinker with a program in Haskell, I already know it will
work once it compiles.
* Michael Reid: Learning Haskell has completely reversed my feeling
that static typing is an old outdated idea. The power of Haskell's
type system makes it feel like you are programming in a dynamic
language to some degree, yet all of it is type-checked, and that
is just *really* cool.
* weavejester: I've come across many parser generators that are a
dream to work with in comparison to lex and yacc. The best one
I've found so far is Haskell's Parsec.
* David Roundy: What's the good of having a haskell-programming
computational linguist on board if we can't get static
compile-time guarantees of grammatical correctness?
* Bulat Ziganshin: When FP just pass all the functions and data
required for specialization of generic algorithm, OOP provides
interfaces, virtual functions, anonymous classes, delegates and
lots of other interesting ways to hide the fact of lack of
first-class functions :)
* [Douglas] Adams: was interested in computing --- I think his
reaction to being told about functional programming was to wonder
what non-functional programming might be.
* ezekiel: I find Haskell to be like Lisp and APL and Python all put
together in a way that leads me quickly to a solid result. Other
languages work, but the road to the result is bumpier.
* AlanYx: I've found that Haskell's uber-strong, static type system
does help me be productive, because it increases the class of bugs
that can be found at compile time, forces thinking at a higher
level, and can help avoid edits to existing code breaking things
elsewhere in the code
* anonymous: Closures in today's world are a 'language geek'
feature. Unless done extremely carefully and in a way that
supports the various skill levels of developers, they end up being
unusable and unsupportable by anything less than computer language
savants. In their inherent obscurity and complexity, 'language
geek' style closures are about as anti-Java as you can get.
* anonymous: I work in a Smalltalk shop, where we extend and
maintain an application that has been around over a decade. During
the maintenance part of our job, it would be really nice to have
type declarations on variables. For maintenance, the more
dependable information we have, the better! The fewer things that
can escape as runtime exceptions, the better!
* consultant barbie: Languages are hard. Let's write web frameworks
and go shopping!
