Programming languages change the way you think: C lets you think like a real man (paleo!), Java lets you think like a bureaucrat, Haskell lets you think that you think like a god, Assembler lets you think like an actual god, and Mathematica lets you think Stephen Wolfram is God

I had always vouched C and assembly. Maybe I am a dinosaur. What’s erlang used for. I have heard many talk about it but I don’t know who uses Haskell, erlang.

Haskell teaches you to think not in terms of state change but function composition. It is based on the typed Lambda calculus (Lisp is untyped Lambda calculus). Erlang introduces actors, whick are helpful to think about concurrency.
