Message-ID: <180@kadsma.kadsm> Date: 14 Sep 88 15:44:23 GMT Reply-To: brunjes@kadsma.UUCP (Roy Brunjes) Organization: Eastman Kodak, Rochester NY Lines: 7 I have seen several postings lately talking about functional programming and how suitable Forth is for that. My question is, I hope, more simple. What IS functional programming? Hopefully it is not as vague as some other concepts, such as 4GL's (to name one).
