clojure vs haskell

Name: Anonymous 2012-09-11 2:13

I write C/python/javascript everyday at work and I wanted to mess around with a functional language at home.

Right now I'm leaning toward haskell because I figure It'd be more usefull for little scripts and parsers since you don't have to wait for jvm startup.

Also I don't know java.

I'd mainly be working on graphics programs with opengl/penumbra.

From Scheme to Common Lisp is like a refugee
  from very rural Pakistan who gets relocated to Oslo, Norway, and still
  thinks that he could make better food if he were only allowed to light a
  fire in his living room instead of using that complex electric stove.
  (This is a real news item.  Every now and then, landlords discover indoor
  fireplaces and occasionally the "newbies" to civilization burn down the
  building.)  While it may seem "jarring" to the newbie to learn the ropes
  of a society that has evolved at least a thousand years further than what
  they left, it would not be the same for us to try out their lifestyle.
