In this case I think 20 years of C++ experience doesn't help much. At least it doesn't help me. This is a challenge for procedural programmers to really think through what functional primitives are all about by implementing them in a procedural language. It's not the usual template metaprogramming brain teaser.

I very much agree. I should have stated more clearly that "20 years of coding" requirement in my post should include software (and hardware development) in a variety of languages, including functional languages. Or even domain specific languages like SQL, Matlab or VHDL/Verilog.
