⁠Haskell

Inspired by, among others, Standard ML⁠, and influencing languages like F#⁠, Haskell⁠ is a pure, functional programming language that's notable for its use of a lazily evaluated computational model, as well as for the introduction of type classes⁠ and its use of monads⁠ for handling side effects, particularly in the context of I/O.

While multiple implementations exist for the language, this example makes use of the Glasgow Haskell Compiler⁠ to build a simple example program.
