Java and C++ languages have one important feature comparing to Haskell -
it is possible to write Haskell using them. In addition, with Java based
languages it is often possible to use plain Java where necessary and in
that case you have the best from both worlds.

don't have, and you'll see the ways in which they are cumbersome and
overly verbose.
Of course, things go both ways, and there are problems which are easier
to solve in languages like Java. But overall -- I find -- having
learned a functional language, you will always encounter situations
where you wish something was possible that just isn't there in an
imperative language, or requires two extra functions and twenty lines
of code instead of a simple expression.
This is just advertising, don't take it too serious,
