"Ch" == Ch A Herrmann writes: it's a BottomthGL language :)

Ch> That's a religious statement. I was looking for some strong Ch> arguments for the nonbelievers that Haskell is a 5GL. But what about nonbelievers in language classification by generation? As already mentioned you can write algorithms in Haskell (3GL), embed a DSL in it and write a program in that DSL or in several DSLs (4GL). AFAIK Mathematica is not a logic programming language, thus all its features can be implemented in Haskell as library, will be Haskell a 5GL in this case?
