Fucking Haskell

Name: Anonymous 2015-07-28 2:24

Why doesn't Haskell excite me as much as Common Lisp did? CL is such a big sweet language with all sorts of cool shit in in. Haskell in comparison seems minimal and I wonder if I'm missing out because I don't understand the magic of types or w/e.

The Prelude is minimal. Part of the point of Haskell is how you can hugely extend the language just by writing a library. If you're using the Haskell Platform distribution and not just the bare-bones GHC+Base, you've got a lot of that to work with, so long as you import it.
