Codesleuth

• Polyglot developers are more adventurous
  • Know different, therefore think different
• Why Haskell?
  • one of the most statistically typed languages
  • one of the most strictly functional languages

“C++ is sadly typed”

• Static typing does not have to suck
  • type inference!
  • polymorphic types!

• Languages should work for us, not the other way around

  • list values, ranges, skipping
  • head/tail/init/last/take

• Tuples

• Expressions over statements
  • Statements have side effects
  • Expressions do not have to have side effects
  • Less void
  • Less mutability
• Currying (e.g. blind closures)
  • Can be used in C# and JavaScript
  • Get used to it
• Be more lazy
  • Use C# Lazy type more to reduce overhead
• Expression scopes
  • Functional expressions
• Infinite series with yield returns already available in C#!
