Re: [Haskell-cafe] Interesting Thread on OO Usefulness (scala mailing list)

ML functors seem the ideal tool for this task. People have shown how you can emulate them with typeclasses, but it won't necessarily be pretty... On Mon, May 4, 2009 at 4:05 AM, Paolo Losi wrote:

Hi all,

I'm following an interesting thread on the scala mailing list:

http://www.nabble.com/-scala--usefulness-of-OOP-td23268250.html

Martin Odersky advocates the OO features of the scala language proposing an interesting problem where the OO approach seams valuable.

I would be very much interested in seeing an Haskell solution to that problem. Any haskell guru want to take a stub at it or give an opinion from a pure FP point of view?

Thanks Paolo
