Note that that's not quite true for Haskell.

In Haskell, each line is not sequenced implicitly, though there are useful patterns (monads) which do specify the evaluation order. IO, State, and Writer are all sequenced, [] is depth first search, and Par is in parallel. We've got patterns for them all.
