try implementing symbolic differentiation in a language like haskell or egison, and then again in a language like python or js, and your perspective on what is 'easy to understand and debug' is very likely to change

Do you have an example of such an implementation in haskell?

googling i found https://gist.github.com/amalex5/541dc739201bbd8e26037b6738cd... although it's missing the type declaration

http://5outh.blogspot.com/2013/05/symbolic-calculus-in-haske... is more complete and also includes an explanation and a bunch of simplifications you'd also want along with it
