List the following functional (not necessarily pure) from greatest to least.
1.) Haskell
2.) Erlang
3.) Elixir

5.) Clojure
6.) Elm

Lol, building an interpreter in Ocaml as I browse 4chan.

It's misleading to put the Lisps under the label "functional."

True, my mistake. A little drunk.

People still use that?

Clojure is pretty damn functional, so is Scheme (mandatory TCO, recursion instead of loops).
CL is a lot more functional than C/Java, although admittedly it's more stateful.

Rust?

I agree. It's unfair to associate Lisp with something as retarded as Haskell.

What's the point of functional programming?
Nice theoretical shit for autists, but it has no practical use.
