You'd be more convincing providing a substantial response instead of referring me to "investigate". I've used FP extensively, and they all make mutation very hard, by design.
Do you disagree with this premise? Do you disagree with my claim that the world is dynamic, and that FPs are limited in representing them?
Please address my points specifically if you have anything meaningful to contribute.
I would be more convincing, but the whole point of my comment was that you need to do the work to get up to date with where the debate is. Don't ask other people to do the work for you.
Anyway, FYI that's why you've been multiply downvoted. Not because there's some FP cabal who downvote pro-imperative comments.
Didn't expect otherwise. You'd use a logical response if you had one.
My comment is a direct response to the OP who implied FPs are going to "take over".
I'm being downvoted probably by FP zealots who can't deal with the idea that their solutions aren't perfect or universal.
BTW, I'm not "against" FP in general at all. I have used it in the past, and it has useful idioms to contribute to imperative languages, and it's perhaps useful on its own in some domains; I'm just pointing out its limitations.
