I got interested towards functional programming, reading that it favors concurrency and avoidance of mutation is the future...
What is the reality?
I haven't seen much regarding this from Dijkstra, Wirth, Hoare and their friends... So what are language master's thoughts on this?
Wirth writes about Functional Programming on pages 66-67 of the paper that Lars mentioned recently:
"Good Ideas, through the Looking Glass", IEEE Computer, Jan. 2006.
