My first language was Racket and so naturally I gravitated to the lispy untyped functional programming style even when I was using languages like Python or Java, but when I tried Haskell for the first time my mind was absolutely blown and I was a convert ever since. What are your thoughts?

I like the typing system of OCaml but I also like the fact that typing systems are optional in the lisps (Typed Racket, Typed Clojure, the CLOS...)
