I don't know. I'm a beginner in Haskell, and I down't know about T.
You mean they cannot ?
I was under the impression that the purpose of computers cannot
be fulfiled if we cannot get the result of computations out of
the computers.
Haskell is not a computer programming language; Haskell
implementations are not required to run on computers. Haskell is
a formal notation for computation (completely unrelated to the Von
Neuman machine sitting on your desk). It can be implemented on
Von Neuman machines, because they are still universal Turing
machines, but it is /not/ a radical attack on the problem of
programming peripherals!
I suppose it can run on pebbles.
Any language can be emulated on pebbles; unlike most languages,
Haskell can be compiled directly to them.
