Through my limited experience of Haskell, I found it interesting to see people declare modified variables with ticks(e.g. x' = x + 5). This is due to Haskell's functional nature, but I still found it very elegant and mathematical if for whatever reason the old value must be reachable. Maybe it could compile to x_ or something. What do you guys think?
