Finally, someone understands that Allman is not that great, and that Kernighan & Ritchie is the way to go.
Also, Haskell, my guy, you good?
Lisp, are you ok? Do I need to call your parents?
I’ve written Haskell quite a bit, and I don’t fully understand why this is called Haskell style. Haskell code looks nothing like this, the syntax is completely different. For Haskell’s syntax I think it works fine, because I never noticed something weird. But this code in “Haskell style” looks absolutely insane
It’s sometimes called comma-leading style where you move all the special characters to the front of the line and it is exceedingly common in Haskell, possibly due to how Haskell treats significant whitespace. You’ve surely seen list definitions that look like this:
someList =
[ 1
, 2
, 3
]
or a data definition like this:
data Color
= Red
| Green
| Blue
| RGB Int Int Int
deriving (Show, Eq)
or a list of module exports like this:
module Foo
{ bar
, baz
, quux
}
Or in a long function type declaration where the arrows are moved to the start of the line, or a record definition, etc. etc.

Allman all the way baybeeee

Meh, it’s what you get when you write a language in a different language’s “style”.
You should see how a Lisper writes in their native language
They are super extra not okay
