Your comment provoked me to try Haskell and see what the fuss is all about. I came across this fun little Try Haskell thing (yeah, copycat of TryRuby) http://tryhaskell.org/ It's very interactive and fun.

I think basically what the parent comment is saying is that it's much easier to pass functions as arguments to other functions in Haskell than it is in python. They call them high order functions.
