It's not pure currently, so definitely more like OCaml.

We make frequent use of overloaded array comprehensions, which is one form that monad syntax can take. The "do" notation introduced by Haskell isn't supported right now, but maybe soon. I'd like to refactor the parser code a bit anyway.




Imho non-pure is probably ok. Haskell's purity is probably what destroyed any chance of it growing popular enough to have a healthy ecosystem of libraries and community.

Anyway, since this has no memory management, neither rust-like nor gc, this is not in the niche I care about now, so moving on...

But again, great work. "Strict Haskell" with good C++ interop and decent records is awesome.
