[Haskell-cafe] Santana on my evil ways

My son's nickname is Rama, so let me adopt it. I am a functional programmer, even when I use languages such as C. Scheme facilitated my development into a functional programmer, however, I appreciate the benefits of pure function programming at times. Yet when I use Haskell, I hear reminders of my Scheme past cast in the music of Santana. The words I hear are set to "Eval Ways": You've got to change your evil ways... Rama Before I stop respecting you. You've got to change... Rama And every word that I say, it's true. You use strange syntax and typing And offset rules You don't mutate locations You use strange do's This can't go on... Lord knows you got to change. John
