Some of the features they are adding to c# are pretty cool. Nothing you can't do in Haskell, but it does have the advantage of familiar syntax. On the other hand they say it is easier to teach functional programming to people who have never programmed before. I was of course thinking of how to persuade someone to adopt Haskell as yet another programming language. Marc Charpentier wrote:
