Really? I find the opposite: doing OOP right with all of it's abstractions requires many more brain cycles than functional programming.

- rvense 6y agoPHP is too hard for me. I can't keep track of all the things I need to keep track of not to write unmaintainable, error-prone, insecure garbage. With typed functional languages I do a little better.
- wolco 6y agoI doubt you could write unmaintainable insecure php code. I'm positive you could write error prone garbage in any language.
- WJW 6y agoI think the difference in brain cycles spent for a master in OOP vs a master in FP is far less than the difference between a beginner in either compared to the masters of their style. At least in my experience, OOP has more concepts to learn but each learning step is smaller. FP has less concepts in total but the learning curve has some rather steep parts in it.
