Opinionated Haskell

Yes. Nim.

http://nim-lang.org/

What?
Haskell is imo one of the most readable languages...

Thanks, Anon, for that link! I just creamed my in my pants when looking at the spec.

Pick one.

It's not readable if you're retarded

>>57219334
no, you're actually retarded.
The point of such high level languages is to make concepts easier. If you can't learn the rules of a language then you're a moron, but it doesn't mean the language is esoteric or difficult.
If you want an unreadable language go look at lisp, or C. haskell actually maps concepts in a very straightforward way without too much boilerplate, and with enough syntactic sugar for you to know what a program is doing.

Sure, that must be why Haskell is so successful and ubiquituous...

>>57221031

To be fair, much of it comes down to the naming convention. If variables and functions were named like in enterprise Java it would be much clearer.

I still think that procedural / oo languages are more readable and easier to interpret at first glance, however. Functional languages may just have different merits.

I will not continue to insult you but it is not very smart to associate unrelated features. Success is more linked to historial factors than to inherent features of a language.
Also how ever is a sample of perfectly normal haskell code proof of concept?
I don't know haskell so I don't understand much of that code, but I can make a few good guesses about what it does syntactically (although not semantically because I don't know what those variables and functions represent).
My ignorance (or yours) of the language doesn't make it unreadable, any more that other's ignorance of [your favorite language] makes it unreadable.

>>57218873
Conversion to C is dumb.

>>57222432
Yeah, I don't get it.

>>57222093
>All unreadable
literally what

>>57222093

JavaScript is functional though, anon.

Wut.

>Are there languages that are as compile-time safe as Haskell but also opinionated and readable as Python and GoLang?

Elm is a Haskell-inspired compile-time safe language but also very opinionated.

The BSD 3-Clause license is far better than commie viral copyleft GPL bullshit.

That's pretty normal, most compilers do just that except they only use C-- instead of full-blown C.

wtf are you on about?

>>57226239
C minus what?

>>57226983

So Swift/Rust?

>>57221031
it looks like php combined with c

>>57222093
lol, so what is readable for you if ain't these languages?

COBOL because it's in english?

C--

It's an actual thing, believe it or not.

>Programming language to protect programmers from shooting themselves in the foot is only used by academics

We live in the dankest timeline.

>>57220935
By virtue of being high level the language is more readable than lisp? Yeah ok enjoy your explosion in a syntax factory that is lisp

>>57221031
Taking Template Haskell as haskell example.

For those that don't know: Template haskell is the meta programming part of haskell
so what you see here is pretty much macro programming in C

It's done in the same language, but it's pretty annoying and uses a few custom syntax things.
the [| quotes |] and $() are TH specific.

>>57230311
Wow i fucked up meant haskell at end since lisp has only like 6 elements of syntax

okay

are you dyslectic?
