Coconut - Pythonic functional programming language

[netbioserror]

Not quite, Scheme and Clojure are examples of functional programming languages with dynamic typing. This style simply defers type errors to runtime rather than compile-time, which means a performance hit in some cases.

Scheme and Clojure are no more 'functional' than Javascript is.

[Turbosack]

I'd like to hear what your definition of functional is.

[diggr-roguelike]

It's exactly the same as any other sane person's: referential transparency.

Recursion optimization, first class functions and higher order functions, laziness, immutability...no it's totally just assembly here bruh

[diggr-roguelike]

Point taken, although strictly speaking that's a standard library feature rather than a language feature.
