in thread Indispensible language features

Incidentally, one thing that I'm really starting to like about Haskell is its ability to seamlessly manipulate functions via currying, composition, and higher-order functions like flip.

You may want to also take a look at Standard ML as well, it has many similarities to Haskell, but is less strict about being functional (meaning, you can do do imperitive programming with it if you really want too).

    I prefer Scheme and Perl for that sort of thing, but thanks.
