I kinda agree. But my personal take is different. Functions can be invoked in at least 3 different ways or a mixture of the three 1. Prefix - C style f(x,y,z)

I kinda agree. But my personal take is different. Functions can be invoked in at least 3 different ways or a mixture of the three 1. Prefix - C style f(x,y,z) 2. Infix - x + y; x.f(y,z); a join b 3. Post fix- (x,y,z) $ f Infix is the best style in most cases, OOP accidentally helped programmers use a more readable infix style. A lot of the benefits of OOP can be had by allowing good infix invocation support and interface support in an imperative non OOP language. Might as well throw in generics.
