@jsuereth @marius Even if a function doesn't close over mutable state, Try still exposes impurity.

@djspiewak @marius if you limit to non-catching functions?

@jsuereth @marius Throwing an exception isn't impure. It's true that catching one is though.

@djspiewak @jsuereth @marius throwing an uncaught exception has the side-effect of termination. How is that pure?

@puffnfresh http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/base/latest/doc/html/Control-Exception-Base.html#v:throw … just sayin'. /cc @djspiewak @jsuereth @marius

@mergeconflict @djspiewak @jsuereth @marius I have just become enlightened

@puffnfresh @mergeconflict @djspiewak @jsuereth @marius It has also been suggested to model Try with haskell to highlight the bugs.

@dibblego @puffnfresh @mergeconflict @djspiewak @marius using that logic, try/catch in scala is broken since it's not hidden in IO.
