My client seems to have hosed this up (it turned = into =3D), but I
think you said: 

fib n
  | n == 0 = 1
  | n == 1 = 1
  otherwise = fib (n - 1) + fib (n - 2)

If that's what you wrote, then I like it! 


Oh, and to bring things full circle, here it is in c again: 

 int fib(n) {
   return ( n < 2 ? 1 : fib( n-1 ) + fib( n-2 ) )
 }
