From C#7 and Haskell

[bearophile via Digitalmars-d]

Design Notes for C#7:
https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn/issues/98

Perhaps they will enhance C# switch (plus an optional special 
method) to support a form of pattern matching. I'd like something 
related in D, someday.

It's perhaps the first time I see Haskell used for a large 
program and system.

<<
New things:
- Data mining: In-language relational algebra data structures and 
API.
- Memoization: In-language data flow graph library with 
memoization support.

Native relational algebra data type.
- An awful lot of data mining and analysis is best done with 
relational algebra.
- Not just in the database.
