/prog/ - Ruby is verbose, compared to Symta

Symta:

type person{Name Age} name/Name age/Age
person.`<` X = $age < X.age
person.as_text = "{$name} ({$age})"

Group = [person{'Bob' 33}, person{'Chris' 16}, person{'Ash' 16}]

say Group.sort.flip

Ruby:

class Person
  attr_reader :name, :age
  def initialize(name, age)
    @name, @age = name, age
  end
  def <=>(person) # the comparison operator for sorting
    age <=> person.age
  end
  def to_s
    "#{name} (#{age})"
  end
end
 
group = [
  Person.new("Bob", 33),
  Person.new("Chris", 16),
  Person.new("Ash", 23)
]
 
puts group.sort.reverse

Haskell - feces

Symta:
qsort@r$[] [H@T] = [@T.keep{?<H}^r H @T.skip{?<H}^r]

Haskell:

qsort [] = []
qsort (x:xs) = qsort [y | y <- xs, y < x] ++ [x] ++ qsort [y | y <- xs, y >= x]
