{{{Haskell is a computer programming language. In particular, it is a polymorphicly typed, lazy, purely functional language,

mathematical logic serves as a foundation for functional languages. Haskell is based on lambda calculus,
hence the lambda we use as a logo.}}}		 Haskell is an advanced purely functional programming language.

About Haskell

Haskell is an advanced purely functional programming language. An open source product of more than twenty years of cutting edge research, it allows rapid development of robust, concise, correct software. With strong support for integration with other languages, built-in concurrency and parallelism, debuggers, profilers, rich libraries and an active community, Haskell makes it easier to produce flexible, maintainable high-quality software.
