How to use this tool?

This free online converter lets you convert code from Haskell to Erlang in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -

  1. Type or paste your Haskell code in the input box.
  2. Click the convert button.
  3. The resulting Erlang code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.

Examples

The following are examples of code conversion from Haskell to Erlang using this converter. Note that you may not always get the same code since it is generated by an AI language model which is not 100% deterministic and gets updated from time to time.

Example 1 - Is String Palindrome

Program that checks if a string is a palindrome or not.

Key differences between Haskell and Erlang

CharacteristicHaskellErlang
SyntaxHaskell has a more complex and expressive syntax compared to Erlang.Erlang has a simpler and more straightforward syntax compared to Haskell.
ParadigmHaskell is a purely functional programming language.Erlang is a concurrent and fault-tolerant programming language.
TypingHaskell has a strong static type system.Erlang has a dynamic and weak type system.
PerformanceHaskell is known for its high performance and optimization capabilities.Erlang is optimized for concurrency and fault-tolerance rather than raw performance.
Libraries and frameworksHaskell has a growing ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, but it may not have as many options as other languages.Erlang has a mature ecosystem with a wide range of libraries and frameworks available.
Community and supportHaskell has a passionate and active community, but it may be smaller compared to other languages.Erlang has a strong and supportive community with a focus on telecom and distributed systems.
Learning curveHaskell has a steep learning curve due to its advanced concepts and functional programming paradigms.Erlang has a relatively gentle learning curve, especially for developers familiar with imperative languages.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert Haskell to Erlang?

Paste your Haskell code into the input box, confirm the languages are set to Haskell and Erlang, and click Convert. CodeConvert AI analyzes your Haskell code and generates equivalent Erlang code in seconds, preserving the original logic and structure.

What are the main differences between Haskell and Erlang?

Haskell and Erlang differ in syntax, type system, standard libraries, and common idioms, so copying code line for line usually will not compile. The converter maps each Haskell construct to its closest Erlang equivalent. See the comparison table below for the key differences between Haskell and Erlang.

Is the converted Erlang code accurate?

The AI produces high-quality Erlang code that preserves the behavior of your original Haskell code and follows Erlang conventions. It handles common patterns, data structures, and idioms for both Haskell and Erlang. For large or performance-critical code, review and test the Erlang output before using it in production.

Can I convert an entire Haskell project to Erlang?

You can convert Haskell files one at a time by pasting each file's code. For a full migration, convert each file and then review how classes, dependencies, and project structure map from Haskell to Erlang. Signing in for free raises the input limit to 25,000 characters per conversion for larger files.

Can I convert Erlang back to Haskell?

Yes. CodeConvert AI converts in both directions, so you can convert Erlang to Haskell just as easily using our Erlang to Haskell converter. Try the Erlang to Haskell Converter

Is the Haskell to Erlang converter free, and do I need to install anything?

Yes, it is free and runs in your browser with nothing to install and no IDE extension required. You can convert Haskell to Erlang without an account for up to 5 conversions per day. Sign in for free for higher limits.

What are the benefits of signing in?

Signing in unlocks CodeConvert AI's Pro converter with more powerful AI models, a built-in chat assistant, code execution, saved conversion history, and personal notes. Every free account includes 5 credits and supports up to 25,000 characters of input per conversion, with no credit card required.
