I dunno, my first functional programming language really through me through a loop. I am starting my first Rust project and so far it doesn't look to be that horrible.
Functional programming is very different in how you get stuff done.
I would recommend learning Elm first for functional programming before trying anything hairier like Haskell etc.
Elm is a small and lovely language for writing web pages/sites/user interfaces, and has a blisteringly fast compiler that is also the most genuinely helpful of all the compilers I've ever used.
It's a blissfully stable antidote to JavaScript's exhausting "that whole approach is so last month" churn.
Thanks for the suggestion! I will take a look once I make some more progress on my rust project. Time is tight these days, so I need to limit the quantity of things I attempt to do in parallel.
Good plan. One paradigm shift at time! All the best with the rust project.
