Except that FP basically dominates class based OO[1]. If FP were the norm, nobody would study class based OO. Remaining alternatives could be prototype based OO, bare-bone programming (assembly, C, LLVM), stack languages, and domain specific languages.

- alecbenzer 15y agoThat's an opinion, and it may have merit and be valid, but it still could be the case that people might want to experiment with OO languages, and also doesn't change the fact that people who know FP might just be better in any language because of their interest in programming languages, not because of the merits of FP.
