Q.	How many of you are familiar with functional programming languages?	Related Search: Programming & Design
	I'm just curious to see how many programmers here have worked with and are comfortable programming in functional programming languages such as Lisp, Scheme, and Haskell. Note that just because VB.NET has functions, that does not make it functional :). Experience in other non-imperative/object-oriented languages such as Prolog is welcome too. As a side question, which is your favorite and why? Neither PHP nor C++ is functional. You'd know if a language was functional :)
A.	Is PHP functional? I like php because it's open source and I have fun programming using it. In fact the only two programming languages that I know so far are c++ and php. sorry if that does not answer your question :)

Q.	Why should I learn a functional programming language like Lisp or Haskell?	Related Search: Programming & Design
	It seems to me that languages like Lisp and Haskell are seldom used anywhere except academia and hobby open source projects. Since it is very doubtful it will land me a job, why should I bother learning a language like Lisp or Haskell?
A.	I guess you never remembered the Y2K bug. The new programmers didn't know the old languages and so companies had to overpay the old programmers who knew the older languages to correct the problem. It's a question of supply and demand. A programmer that knows just LISP and is willing to travel will make far more money than a programmer that just knows C++.

Q.	The simplest functional programming language?	Related Search: Programming & Design
	I am searging for the simplest functional programming language. This language must be pure functional language. Simplicity criteria is amount of language constructs. It could be good if this language can support macroprogramming. This language should be able to code anything like other languages like C# and others. Pay attention that this is must be really and PURE functional language. Like Hasskell but simpler.
A.	python [Link]

A.	there are many types of difference

Q.	Do you use ML functional programming language?	Related Search: Programming & Design
	I just wanna know if any of you can program using that language cos I need some help!!!!!!:(
A.	Yeesh... I'll try, but the last time I used it was on my degree course fourteen years ago.
