  • How does functional programming in Haskell compare to Scala?

    Haskell is a pure functional language, meaning all computations are expressions without side effects, which can make reasoning about code easier.

    Scala blends both functional and object-oriented programming, giving you more flexibility depending on your needs.

    Haskell has a steeper learning curve but is more rigorous about functional paradigms, while Scala is more pragmatic.

    If you’re working with the JVM ecosystem or need to integrate with Java, Scala is the obvious choice.

    Haskell excels at academic or research projects where functional purity is key, while Scala is more suitable for enterprise-grade software.
