Haskell or Lisp

which one is [size=15]better[/size]?

Name: Anonymous 2011-01-12 0:20

Erlang

Erlang is a simple subset of Haskell, you can learn it very quickly. Lisp is also simple, but its simplicity quickly disappears if you try to do anything complicated.

Erlang is a simple subset of Haskell
So does it have nomads?

Haskell size (2010.2.0.0): 74M
Racket size (5.0.2): 48M
Erlang size (R14B01): 83M
Python size (3.2 b2): 17M

AWK size (original) 65.9k

Need I say more? When I use a programming language, I don't want eighty MEGABYTES of worthless abstractions and message passing. AWK! AWK! Who's a pretty boy, then!!!

dosn't awk also require [ccode]mzscheme[/code] to be installed?

and yeah what's in all those megabytes... the linux kernel is smaller than that

awk require mzscheme
What?

When I use a programming language, I don't want O(n²) algorithms in the standard library and The Forced Purification of Code. I just want to program!!!
Not "zygohistomorphic prepromorphisms". Not "comonadic functors".
LISP! LISP! LISP IS THE LANGUAGE!!!

O(n²) algorithms in the standard library
assoc ?

assoc is O(n).

There is an awk library written in Scheme, but that is not the standard awk.

I'd never write something like awk in Scheme.
At least for me, racket takes some time to start. (where ``some'' is not >1 second, but it's still more than C/Perl)

wow, Erlang is the biggest of the bunch, I think I'll go with that!

And you see absolutely nothing wrong with that?

Name: Anonymous 2011-01-12 9:35

when did awk become more than a set of macros?

anyways the answer is haskell

You don't use long alists, problem solved.
If you need a long alist, you probably want an hash map (>>13).

you can do a reader macro for that, ``faggot''.

Haskell is lazy. Lisp is not.

That's because you can't use it, ``faggot''.
