Ask HN: What functional programming language(s) do you use?
And what are your thoughts about it/them? Feel free to mention both pros and cons, and anything else, like what you use it for, market demand (perceived), community, docs, tools, etc.
- davidw 9y agoErlang - it does stuff that's handy for me in the real world.
- vram22 9y agoCool.
- vram22 9y agoI am checking out F# myself. Still early, but seems interesting and powerful.
- vram22 9y agoP.S. Thanks to all who reply.
