Differences between Clojure & Haskell?

>>60607228
Haskell's only value is bragging on /g/ about MUH MONADS.
Clojure could potentially lend you a job.
Do the math.

>>60607249

Excellent point anon, I'll stick with Clojure

>>60607228
Haskell is a meme, Clojure isn't

Why would you want to learn either?

>>60607512
Why not? Serious question

>>60607597

I don't see a point. What kind of software is easy to write in these functional languages?

>>60607627
Good question. I'm just learning it mostly for academic interest. But partly for job (otherwise I'd go full blown Haskell). I think Clojure is good with concurrency. But that is second hand opinions I heard, I don't actually know: https://www.quora.com/Is-Clojure-better-at-concurrency-than-Scala

>>60607249
Should I start with Scheme->Lisp and Clojure?
That way I could be more productive than anyone who just Clojure.

>>60607924
There's simply no point in using clojure, period. It's a crippled lisp dialect on top of the jvm, and it's slow as shit. Use java or scala on top of the jvm, or use a scheme dialect outside the jvm.

If you know that Clojure has a good chance of getting you a job at a company, then it is a good bet.

For learning FP, Haskell is better at forcing you to learn purity and abstractions. Clojure is better at making you learn to use functional data structures, which is much more important for learning to write fast functional code.

>>60607228
Haskell is statically typed. Clojure is dynamically typed.
Haskell has a native compiler. Clojure runs on the JVM.
Haskell has ML-like syntax. Clojure has lisp-like syntax.

Both are ok languages. If Clojure can get you a job, start with that and you can learn some Haskell later if you want to.
