Gofer
<language> A lazy functional language designed by Mark
Jones <mpj@cs.nott.ac.uk> at the Programming Research Group,
Oxford, UK in 1991. It is very similar to Haskell 1.2. It
has lazy evaluation, higher order functions, {pattern
matching}, and type classes, lambda, case, conditional and
let expressions, and wild card, "as" and {irrefutable
patterns}. It lacks modules, arrays and standard
classes.
Gofer comes with an interpreter (in C), a compiler which
compiles to C, documentation and examples. Unix Version
2.30 (1994-06-10) Mac_Gofer version 0.16 beta. Ported to
Sun, Acorn Archimedes, IBM PC, Macintosh, Atari,
Amiga.
Version 2.30 added support for contexts in datatype and member
function definitions, Haskell style arrays, an external
function calling mechanism for gofc, an experimental
implementation of Launchbury/Peyton Jones style lazy
functional state threads, an experimental implementation of
"do" notation for monad comprehensions.
Latest version: HUGS.

Gofer
A gofer, go-fer or gopher is an employee who specializes in the delivery of special items to their superior(s). Examples of these special items include a cup of coffee, a tool, a tailored suit, or a car. Outside of the business world, the term is used to describe a child or young adult who is learning how to do tasks and is sent to fetch items. A similar job is that of peon in Commonwealth countries.
