2. Functional programming - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_programming

   Functional programming is very different from imperative programming. The most significant differences stem from the fact that functional programming avoids side effects, which are used in imperative programming to implement state and I/O. Pure functional programming completely prevents side-effects and provides referential transparency.

3. Purely functional programming - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purely_functional_programming

   In a purely functional language, the only dependencies between computations are data dependencies, and computations are deterministic. Therefore, to program in parallel, the programmer need only specify the pieces that should be computed in parallel, and the runtime can handle all other details such as distributing tasks to processors, managing synchronization and communication, and collecting ...

4. List of programming languages by type - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_programming...

   Functional programming languages define programs and subroutines as mathematical functions and treat them as first-class. Many so-called functional languages are "impure", containing imperative features. Many functional languages are tied to mathematical calculation tools. Functional languages include:

5. Function (computer programming) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/.../Function_(computer_programming)

   Decomposing a complex programming task into simpler steps: this is one of the two main tools of structured programming, along with data structures; Reducing duplicate code within a program; Enabling reuse of code across multiple programs; Dividing a large programming task among various programmers or various stages of a project

6. FP (programming language) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FP_(programming_language)

   FP (short for functional programming) [2] is a programming language created by John Backus to support the function-level programming [2] paradigm. It allows building programs from a set of generally useful primitives and avoiding named variables (a style also called tacit programming or "point free").
