@Hyolobrika@mstdn.io @deavmi Does it have purity? Pattern-matching, while nice, is superficial. Even laziness is questionable.

@dpwiz
I think those last two are what makes Haskell amazing. Lazy especially.
@Hyolobrika

@deavmi @Hyolobrika@mstdn.io It's amazing, but not unique to Haskell. Pattern matching is going mainstream now and you can have laziness if you need it.
Purity, on the other hand is mostly unattainable in other platforms.

Oh yes of course, not unique. But this is my first dive into FP so everything just seems like "Haskell is amazing"
