If anyone has a version of the N-body benchmark, where the simulation is a type-safe pure function, I would very much like to see and time it.
Hello JC, I think you've set yourself a challenge there :) Welcome to Haskell programming. Taking a Shootout entry and playing with it is a great way to learn Haskell. The Shootout provides an example in your favourite previous language for comparison and a small well defined program with exact test results you can pit your wits against. Fame awaits you for a fast and beautiful entry. I'm still learning useful things from the Fasta benchmark. It's surprising how many interesting things you can discover in a small piece of code. Richard.
