Faster and safer Haskell - benchmarks for the accumulating parameter

Read Original

This technical article benchmarks three Haskell implementations for calculating list length: a naive lazy version, a tail-recursive version, and a strict tail-recursive version using an accumulating parameter. It demonstrates how the strict, tail-recursive approach prevents stack overflow and excessive memory usage (thunks), making it the fastest and safest option for large lists.
