I want to disagree with you, but you're basically right. The functional way of thinking is different enough it's an unnecessary complication for most non CS majors.
That said, you can teach very solid Computing Science using imperative languages. Algol is still used for research and publishing after all.
- momofarm 8y agobut at the birth of SICP, is there any suitable imperative language to do that? If we exclude the part of functional language, SICP is a quite good advanced text for CS major.
