Haskell is more easily compared with e.g. OCaml than with something like Rust. (It's worth noting that OCaml now has its own 'rustified' development OxCaml.) The main practical difference is that Haskell is idiomatically based on lazy evaluation, whereas OCaml is strict. This makes corecursive patterns a bit easier to express in Haskell, but OCaml and OxCaml are friendlier wrt. performance concerns.

Just as Haskell with Linear Haskell.
