Performance comparison of Functional C++ 11, Java 8, JavaScript and Wolfram

I was curious how a non-functional version would fare, so I wrote one in Nimrod and it's a lot faster than the functional C++: https://gist.github.com/def-/8187448ea7a5c8da8265

As some people noticed this was broken. Fixed version is not quite as fast, but still faster than functional C++:

  Goats Wolves Lions    C++11  Nimrod
     17     55     6     0.00    0.03
    117    155   106     0.17    0.13
    217    255   206     0.75    0.62
    317    355   306     2.16    1.89
    417    455   406     5.28    4.34
    517    555   506    10.75    8.42
    617    655   606    19.15   14.45
    717    755   706    31.58   23.04
    817    855   806    46.52   33.69
    917    955   906    67.94   48.57
   1017   1055  1006    93.75   65.25
   2017   2055  2006   731.42  500.95

And a functional version in Nimrod: https://gist.github.com/def-/ccef8bb54170b639c497

The important word here is "functional" C++. This is not about "fastest" C++. What does your comparison tell us?

That functional might not be the best damned paradigm on the planet for every use case? :)

It tells us that nimrod is pretty fast.
