I’ve seen a couple posts in the top in the last 6 hours feed, and it seems like people are really up in arms about this functional programming stuff. Not really sure what it even is.
It looks like it’s people writing bad programming or something? Like a lot of extra stuff that is not necessary?
EDIT: sorry everyone, I’m not a programmer and I don’t know to much other than a little java and python. I guess I should have posted this in Explain Like I’m Five.
At some point, using actual five year old words just makes communication harder rather than easier. OP mentioned that they’re at least somewhat familiar with some programming languages so I assumed they’d figure it out from context. But fine, I’ll change it.
