This free online converter translates R source code into Haskell in three simple steps.
- Step 1
Add your R code
Type, paste, or upload the R code you want to translate.
- Step 2
Convert the code
Click Convert to translate the source code into Haskell.
- Step 3
Review the result
Review, copy, or download the resulting Haskell code from the output editor.

Language comparison
Key differences between R and Haskell
| Characteristic | R | Haskell |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | R has a syntax that is similar to traditional programming languages, with a focus on data manipulation and statistical analysis. | Haskell has a unique syntax that is based on mathematical concepts, with a strong emphasis on functional programming. |
| Paradigm | R is primarily a procedural programming language, but it also supports object-oriented programming. | Haskell is a purely functional programming language, which means that it focuses on writing programs using only functions. |
| Typing | R is dynamically typed, which means that variable types are determined at runtime. | Haskell is statically typed, which means that variable types are checked at compile-time. |
| Performance | R is not known for its performance, especially when dealing with large datasets. | Haskell is known for its high performance, thanks to its lazy evaluation and advanced optimization techniques. |
| Libraries and frameworks | R has a wide range of libraries and frameworks for statistical analysis, data visualization, and machine learning. | Haskell has a smaller ecosystem of libraries and frameworks compared to R, but it is growing steadily. |
| Community and support | R has a large and active community, with plenty of online resources, forums, and packages available. | Haskell has a smaller community compared to R, but it is known for its helpful and knowledgeable members. |
| Learning curve | R has a relatively low learning curve, especially for those with a background in statistics or data analysis. | Haskell has a steep learning curve, especially for those who are new to functional programming. |
Common questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert R to Haskell?
Paste your R code into the input box, confirm the languages are set to R and Haskell, and click Convert. CodeConvert AI analyzes your R code and generates equivalent Haskell code in seconds, preserving the original logic and structure.
What are the main differences between R and Haskell?
R and Haskell differ in syntax, type system, standard libraries, and common idioms, so copying code line for line usually will not compile. The converter maps each R construct to its closest Haskell equivalent. See the comparison table below for the key differences between R and Haskell.
Is the converted Haskell code accurate?
The AI produces high-quality Haskell code that preserves the behavior of your original R code and follows Haskell conventions. It handles common patterns, data structures, and idioms for both R and Haskell. For large or performance-critical code, review and test the Haskell output before using it in production.
Can I convert an entire R project to Haskell?
You can convert R 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 R to Haskell. Signing in for free raises the input limit to 25,000 characters per conversion for larger files.
Can I convert Haskell back to R?
Yes. CodeConvert AI converts in both directions, so you can convert Haskell to R just as easily using our Haskell to R converter. Try the Haskell to R Converter
Is the R to Haskell 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 R to Haskell without an account for up to 2 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.
