That's kind of useless flame. Personally, I find Haskell to be a very beautiful (and useful) language. Just because it isn't meant for all tasks doesn't mean its "ivory tower bullshit". C#, F#, and Scala are all JITed, and JIT compilation has been known to perform quite well in recent benchmarks. Even Java has the potential to be "as fast as C".
Let's just stay on the topic of "best IDE" as opposed to "best language". On 10/13/10 18:01, Gary Whatmore wrote: > Paulo Pinto Wrote: > >> Haskell, F#, Ada, just to name a few. > Ivory tower bu***it. > >> , C#, F#, Scala > Run in a VM ----> SLOW == impractical > > - G.W. -- Regards, -- Clark
