"Sufficiently advanced trolling is indistinguishable from ignorance." I'm leaning slightly towards troll due to the smiley face. But I find myself forced to reply anyway, because such a good tutorial came out recently that covers doing exactly what this question asked about. http://www.haskellforall.com/2013/05/program-imperatively-us...
No, it was not a troll. The thing is, I sort of know the answer, but it never fully reaches my inner understanding, and at the same time I'm interested in it, so I just asked the core issue of what I'm always wondering in the most simple form... Maybe I should just actually try it with a functional language, but never get around to do it.
