Re:Why study functional programming? (2012) by jstx1 on Tuesday August 02, 2022 @02:10PM (#32322295)
I mean there's other options too. Go for example is mostly imperative(?) - it doesn't encourage heavy OOP or pure functional programming. Rust has more functional features but it's still neither purely functional nor heavily OOP. Julia isn't OO at all but it doesn't emphasize FP either.

Those are just three languages that are all (1) modern, (2) generally well received, (3) neither OO nor heavily functional and (4) still very different from each other.
