A few facts about Lisp and Haskell

Lisp:

* (expt -1 (exp 1))
#C(-0.6332554 0.7739428)


Haskell:

Prelude Data.Complex> (-1) ** exp 1 :: Complex Double
(-0.6332556513148192) :+ (-0.773942685266709)

Nice to be welcomed. Thanks. And to all those who say languages except for C/Sepples are toys has to google bootstrapping. And has to remember that C/C++ is still compiled to assembly. Languages are just the means to an end. Sorry, had to get that out of my system. Because most languages are good enough to do anything if you're good enough in the language.

Cont: I just like Haskell because its very math-oriented and as such, is very intuitive for math-oriented people. I like that. So its my language of choice. But I'll also admit that Lisp is a language of abstraction which focuses on logic and not math. Which is great for other people. OOP allows for cleaner code when done well. If a Java programmer learned Smalltalk and learned it well, he would be a god among men. It just depends on the person you are. So inb4 C/C++ is only real man language when Lisp was there first and language compilers are bootstrapped anyway and the bootstraps are generally supported on assembly for more deep-down compilers. Whew.
