Haskell is a modern, general-purpose, pure functional programming language that combines many powerful results from research into a practical programming language. Its features include: Static typing, which increases robustness by allowing the compiler to catch many common errors automatically. Type inference, which deduces types automatically and frees the programmer from writing superfluous type signatures. Higher order functions, polymorphism, and lazy evaluation, which enable higher levels of abstraction and more compositional, thus more reusable code. Purity, which helps to keep code maintainable, enables automatic, randomized testing and eases concurrent programming significantly. Haskell comes with many libraries, freely available compilers for almost any computer, debuggers, profilers, code coverage and testing tools.

They are in QuickTime (H264 video, AAC audio) format, at 320x240 pixels, low frame rate (but still about 120Mb per half-hour talk). Haskell.org is a mentoring organisation in the 2007 Google Summer of Code. 9 students have been funded by Google to work on infrastructure projects for Haskell. The Haskell-prime committee has started work on defining the next minor revision of the language specification.
