That pretty much sums that language up
Strange. I find the language hideous, most likely because it resembles math, or maybe because I'm already used to the C-like syntax.
Haskell is beautiful because it resembles math
It's also beautiful because it doesn't have C-like syntax.
In order to write a haskell program, you must first write the corresponding haskell program.

Functional programming flips your brain around backwards, but shader programming will turn it inside-out.
For more brain flipping try looking into hardware description languages (Verilog) or proof assistants (Coq).
