Bartosz Milewski is a C++ programmer and a Haskell fan. He once
gave a presentation at NWCPP where he wrote a few lines of
Haskell code. Then, he showed the same code written using C++
template metaprogramming.
The Haskell bits in the C++ code were highlighted in red. It
was like a sea of grass with a shrubbery here and there.
Interestingly, by comparing the red dots in the C++ code with
the Haskell code, you could understand what the C++ was doing.
Without the red highlighting, it was a hopeless wall of < > :-)
Was that a pre C++11 version of C++, or a more modern one?
It would be instructive to see that example with C++17 or even 20
and D
next to each other.
