“Quite readable” is a stretch... I know of no other language that needs a hoogle equivalent.

That being said, my experience with Haskell is limited to working on some meta-meta-programming research in college, where every file used at minimum 3 different GHC extensions. So I may be biased.

I find Haskell less of a “needs” a hoogle, and more of a “nothing else has this, this is so useful”.

The number of times I have wished for something like Hoogle when writing Python...

Scala could definitely use hoogle, as can c++/boost. My lesson from all this is to never ever overload an operator except, maybe, the comparison operators.

Exception: apl.

You don't need hoogle -.- It is a very cool tool tho

Again, I don’t have a clue what I’m talking about. But I seem to remember seeing a lot of those “dangerous” ones. If that’s just the state of Haskell, my bad.
