Comment on Ask HN: effects of prefix notation on coding / thinkingComments−silentbicycle17ySome languages allow an unambiguous mix of infix and prefix. OCaml & Haskell: 5 + 7 or (+) 5 7 Most non-alphanumeric operators are infix unless in parens. Haskell: map (\ x -> x + 1) [1, 2, 3] or (\ x -> x + 1) `map` [1, 2, 3] Two-argument, alphanumerically named functions can be made infix with `backticks`.
