Those are all pretty basic Algol-family languages (at least if we're talking vaguely modern Javascript). If you were thrown in to J or Forth or Erlang you might have a different experience.

Funny enough, Erlang is my preferred language (or at least one of them).

I don't know if I'd necessarily call the JS in question "modern", though. It's running on RhinoScript, which needless to say ain't exactly the latest hotness. Still, the platform in question does happen to support/encourage AMD modules (with some special comments for certain components), so I guess it could be worse.
