Haskell haikus
1st prize in 'Original code poems' in the "Waikato ACM Code Poetry Contest 2006":
Haskell is concise
Functional well-typed and neat
It is like Haiku
By FMota, preserved in Lambdabot:
Haskell's cryptic form
is natural to some folks
and so is Haiku's
Monad haikus
From Monad laws#But it doesn't look exactly like an "associative law"...:
Monad axioms:
Kleisli composition forms
a category.
From #haskell
empty list error:
this elegant program dies
so very quickly
less time debugging
more time downloading your brain
to the type system
type checker: "You fool!
What you request makes no sense -
rethink your bad code."
=== From haskell-cafe By Thomas Hartman:
You come for magic
silver bullets slaying bugs...
It is only code!
