I do recommend Haskell. (But do not go into regexes first!)

But even though it has a similar powerful set of operations for regular expressions, people mostly don't use it, because there are better ways to deal with text.




Funny you should mention Haskell as it was used to bootstrap one of the early versions of Perl 6 if I remember.
