Oh come on... has anyone here actually pursued learning Haskell because they thought it would help them rake in the jobs? :) ...I did once have a manager who habitually listed Lisp as a requirement for software positions, even though it wasn't actually going to be used (it was all C, C++ and Perl). He just wanted prospective employees to have had experience understanding a different paradigm (functional-ish programming). I wonder whether he's updated that to "Lisp, Scheme or Haskell"? XSLT would do as well, I suppose... - -- Micah J. Cowan Programmer, musician, typesetting enthusiast, gamer.
