Re: [sc-users] Anyone tried haskell-supercollider ?



also I'm curious, would scala or haskel be faster than the sc language ?

Reading the thread on the problems on big projects with SC, someone talked
about an alternative client based on the language Scala, which seems to be
interesting.

But I know that there is already something based on Haskell, which would
probably bring similar advantages, thanks to the expressiveness of functional
languages and specifically the type safety of Haskell.

http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/hsc3

So I have a few questions :
- has anyone tried hsc ? What are your impressions ?

- If Sclang feels messy to you, does hsc feels less messy ?
- Is haskell's expressiveness actually useful (ie. making big use of neat
  things such as folds and maps) ?

- Is haskell's state of the art type-system useful to avoid bugs when writing
  SC patches ?

cheers
