I must say, I get that! but at the same time, of course, the high level abstraction is exactly what *we* love about Haskell.
Then they should teach assembly not Python. In fact, I'd recommend assembly anyway.
Me too. Assembly language is very nice, minimalistic (ok, for today processor not really, even not for RISC processors) and help you understand, what really happens in the machine. _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
