Functional programming is a style that nests nicely with arrange languages. If you know "R," just think of lapply. It's like lapply everywhere, but without the lapply syntax. Every function is vectorized. People who aren't formally trained on loops or object-oriented programming tend to pick this up more easily. That said, you can do OOP and loops in J if you want to.
