Nope, Haskell was just a bad dream I had. It was just a dream, not real, that's not real. I'm OK.

There there, the monads can’t hurt you here
Haskell is nice. This code style... not so much
A distant voice:
Learn you a Haskell for great good
If all your code isn't on one line you aren't a real programmer.
I prefer to newline after every symbol for better readability
I wonder if you could have it all on one column.
python user 😔
Let me explain...
Imagine having to use {}; instead of
OP is clearly a python user incapable of understanding punctuation
Embrace the brace, you won't be alone with a semi-colon(...e)
Kernighan & Ritchie. This is the hill I choose to die on.
The only correct answer
Allman or gnu, rest are fucking bonkers
Putting the opening curly brace of a code block on the same line that defines the conditions the code block will run under is bonkers?
There's an asymmetry to it that always left me uncomfortable.
If we're judging purely on readability then I think Allman probably has the edge, here. You can see at a glance where the encasement starts or ends in a vertical column on the far left. Of course, that's a moot point if the programmer's color coding is set up to where it is obvious.
K&R FTW
Obviously!
Lol, you deranged lunatic.
Reject the code block. Embrace the modularity. If you were going to write a code block, write a function instead.
If you must avoid code blocks, that means you can only use one line. I don't think you can be Turing complete if each function can only call one function. I don't even think you can get a context-free grammar, Chomsky normal form at least allows a variable to expand into two variables.
Please never bring up CNF again. I'm a year out of college, two years out of finite automata, and I still shudder when it's brought up.
