GHC (Glasgow Haskell Compiler)

The Glasgow Haskell Compiler (GHC) is a powerful tool used to convert programs written in the Haskell programming language into executable code. Haskell is known for its strong emphasis on functional programming, which focuses on writing programs using mathematical functions. GHC processes Haskell code, optimizing it for performance, and checks for errors to ensure the program runs correctly. It plays a crucial role in both academic and industrial applications, enabling developers to build reliable and efficient software. GHC supports advanced features and extensions, making it a leading compiler in the Haskell community.
