Fad Oriented Programming

Name: Anonymous 2015-03-04 4:05

Is it time to declare object orientation officially over and allow functional programming to take the crown as the latest fad?

Also, do you think logical programming will be next? Maybe I should brush up on my Prolog.

You're not making any sense.
Try to write

(defn foo (a b)
(display "HW!")


in Clojure and you will see it's not a Lisp. Also, [a b] denotes a vector, not a list, in Clojure.

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Parameter declaration a should be a vector


So much for a fucking LISP.

extends the code-as-data system beyond parenthesized lists

Thus, it's not a List-Processing Language. And the programmer has extra irrelevant shit to worry about when writing macros. It's not sufficient to generate s-expressions anymore, you have to remember where there should be a vector and where there shouldn't.
