Why Haskell?

The progamming language Haskell is very well suited for mathematical notions, pure computations and and has a terse syntax. It's often marketed as "an advanced, purely functional programming language", that is declarative and statically typed.

• Haskell

Sometimes, however, one needs stateful computations with e. g. arrays that are better expressed in an imperative language like C++.

Why C++?

I use C++ first and foremost because I'm too lazy to use C which would require me to implement a lot of data structures and algorithms myself.

Since I'm at least as lazy as Haskell, I use therefore sometimes C++, too.

If not necessary, I don't write object oriented code.
