It's all about how many adjectives you can get into your class name. e.g.

   SingletonFactoryAdaptorFacadeProviderEnumerator<BridgeAbstractFactory2_Hack> myClass;

With Haskell it is about how big your monad stack is

    StateT ReaderT WriterT LensifierT MaybeT BeerT (IO Int).

Monad stacks are so last decade.

So this is why the golang community prefers:

    for c := range(ns) {
        // some blah
    }

The golang community likes being safe:

  a, err := doFirstThing()
  if err != nil {
    return err
  }

  b, err := doSecondThing(a)
  if err != nil {
    return err
  }

  c, err := doThirdThing(b)
  if err != nil {
    return err
  }

until your keyboard keys go off.

(and I'm a happy gopher myself)

Oh, small typo (I think): no parens around (IO Int).
