Algorithms != computation
- stefncb 4y agoThen no algorithm holds state, because an algorithm is just a ruleset.
- e-dant 4y agoSure. But the point is that functional languages are more declarative, holding very little control flow state. Procedural languages are the opposite. The computation I’m talking about is whether you’re for more of a von neumann target or a lambda calc target.
