Are you claiming that every (even slightly) non-trivial problem (or algorithm) results in a mess of IO code in Haskell? Come on, admit that you like to program in imperative style, and that's why you end up with such mess ;-)
why you (and Donald) don't want to understand me. i say that imperative Haskell code is more efficient
Your statement is too general to deserve answering. Perhaps that's why I react so strongly to your statements - I am allergic to sweeping generalisations (though probably guilty of some myself).
than pure (and especially lazy) one and that even such code in ghc is slower than C equivalent.
ditto
please don't assign to me dumb ideas of your own!
This is not my idea. I just take your statements seriously and see what follows from them. Best regards Tomasz
