The joke that is Haskell stdlib

oBSERVE MY GOOD OL' FELLAS, THE JOKE THAT IS 'HASKELL STDLIB'. i DO NOT DOUBT THE EXCELLENCE IN HASKELL THEORY, BUT ALLOW ME TO MAKE FUN OF THE FRIVOLOUS LIBRARY THEY HAVE FOR STANDARD. LA-FUCKING-OWL.


-- | 'zip' takes two lists and returns a list of corresponding pairs.
-- If one input list is short, excess elements of the longer list are
-- discarded.
zip :: [a] -> [b] -> [(a,b)]
zip (a:as) (b:bs) = (a,b) : zip as bs
zip _      _      = []

;; I shall compare it with Communist Lisp
;; notice the solution is more general
;; and the documentation is built-in
(defun zip (&rest lists)
  "zip takes lists and returns corresponding pairs"
  (apply #'mapcar #'list lists))

o GUESS WAT! BAAA!!! hASKELL PROVIDES zip3 HOHOHOH. wAT ABOUT ZIP4 YOU ASSHOLES??

wAIT, WAIT. nOW IT GETS BETTER.


-- | 'unzip' transforms a list of pairs into a list of first components
-- and a list of second components.
unzip    :: [(a,b)] -> ([a],[b])
{-# INLINE unzip #-}
unzip    =  foldr (\(a,b) ~(as,bs) -> (a:as,b:bs)) ([],[])


;; La Communa lispa
(defun unzip (&rest lists)
  "list of pairs -> list of components"
  (apply #'zip lists))
oH SHIT!!!! fULL GENERAL SOLUTION WITH THE POWAH OF LISPA, HA SS KELL STDLIB IS A JOKE. dID YOU FUCKING LOL READING THIS POST?

One word: import Network


CAN'T DO THAT ON YOUR FUCKING ^TWELVE IMPLEMENTATIONS AND 30 BROKEN UNDOCUMENTED SOCKET LIBRARIES, CAN YOU, LISP WEENY?
