I'd agree with you regarding Python and Kotlin, but Go is pretty clearly anti-functional. It does include closures but little else, and Rob Pike is pretty clear as to the preference for imperative (e.g. for loops) over functional (e.g. map/reduce/etc.) style.
- not_kurt_godel 8y agoFair enough, I don't use Go. I'll admit I just googled "Golang functional", skimmed some stuff, and assumed it fell into the same bucket as Python & Kotlin.
