You need the if construct in Haskell whenever your coding procedural style impurely functional code.

In Haskell
if p then a else b
is just syntactic sugar for

case p of

  True -> a

  False -> b

In Python
if p then a else b
is just syntactic sugar for

if p:

    a

else:

    b

if in Sepples is an entirely superfuluous construct.

switch(p) {

    case true:  /*...*/; break;

    case false:  /*...*/; break;

    case FILE_NOT_FOUND: /*...*/; break;

}

No, that's invalid syntax faggot.

a if p else b is short for

if p:

    a

else:

    b

, though, and it fits in an expression.

Would it be possible to write a program that trolled itself in Haskell?

The answer is: Yes! Haskell can do that.

The first thing I do after having read PAIP will be writing a trollbot.

if is not superflous
the syntax

is not psosible to add in haskello

why not write a meta-troll bot instead? that'd be a lot more interesting.
