				First time I hear of heskell, googled a bit about it though still not clear what advantage it has and what I can do with it, can you give me a clue?

zinnoa1599y@gitpush Haskell is a (fairly?) strongly typed functional language. It's mostly used in academia, although it has seen some commercial use, and I was checking it out to play around with it. - 
				
				
zinnoa1599y@gitpush as for what you can do with it, you can really do most things you'd do in other languages. It just requires a different mindset. - 
				
				
zinnoa1599y@PenguinRage well I tried setting up my own rudimentary structure with ghc and bash scripts for building, but I was having trouble setting it up in such a way that the binaries didn't have to get dumped in the same directory with the source files. When I used ghc to send the binaries to different directories, it wouldnt build properly because it got confused about the interface files when I would try to import modules I had written. - 
				
				@zinnoa from what you see, is it worth learning? I'm now learning ASP.Net Core, as the market here requires ASP.Net and PHP is next in my list

zinnoa1599y@gitpush yeah it was mostly a "for fun" the thing, so I'm not super determined this case
