A Couple of Things that I Like About Haskell

  1. Mathiness. ' is actually a valid character for variable naming. This means that the variables x, x', and x'' can be used inside programs.
  2. Recursion. Well, it's just easier and a little bit mathier, isn't it?
  3. Iteration is replaced with Tail Recursion.
  4. It's different. This is not C#. This is not Java. This is not even F#. This is real functional programming. It really makes you think in a new way.
