I wonder how Haskell compares in this regard.
I loved Graham's characterization of the hierarchy of power in programming languages: - Languages less powerful than the one you understand look impoverished - Languages more powerful than the one you understand look weird When I compare Lisp and Haskell, the big question in my mind is this: is lazy evaluation sufficient to make up for the lack of macros? I would love to hear from a real Lisp macro hacker who has also done lazy functional progrmaming. Norman
