Hrm, I read the book and the code samples were in mainstream languages, naturally, but there wasn’t a specific reference to OO. Algorithms by Sedgewick had more reference to OO but we don’t say that book is overly biased towards OO. The text isn’t about implementation or paradigm. It’s about things applicable in software design in general. For example, good interfaces are deep, rather than shallow. The examples of narrow interfaces are in Java because they were good examples. If you have to instantiate 5, 6 objects to use an interface, the interface is not deep. But if you had to do the same thing in a CLI interface or a GUI, it’s the same idea. You could apply the same ideas to functional APIs.
