Notes
- Flynn, 1998
gollark: §ure.
gollark: That can be pretty performant.
gollark: This is haskellers being apioforms.
gollark: Versus OOP languages, where you have to write unreasonable amounts of code to define a class with equality and hashing and whatnot and you don't have tagged unions.
gollark: I mean, in FP you're generally told to try and rigorously define your data, and ADTs make this nice and easy.
