Haskell is a general purpose lazy
functional programming language. The language is a grateful subject of
program transformation. Program transformations play a prime role in
GHC, the Glasgow Haskell Compiler.
Haskell as Transformation Language
Although it is not primarily aimed at program transformation, it has some features in common with program transformation languages, including
pattern matching.
Strengths
Weaknesses
- No separation of rules and strategies
- No first-class pattern matching
