I don't identify the general notion of "functional programming" with any particular language, including Haskell. I stay with the "idea of a function" as a reliable mapping. Similarly, I don't identify the general notion of "object-oriented" (as I characterized it long ago) with any particular language. Both of these terms have now been "colonized" and their meanings changed, etc.
