Line 140: Javascript deserves a mention. [[Douglas Crockford]] calls it a "Lisp in C's clothing".[http://www.crockford.com/javascript/javascript.html] It has first-class functions, closures, and anonymous functions, and it's common to pass functions as arguments. --[[Special:Contributions/72.226.86.106\|72.226.86.106]] ([[User talk:72.226.86.106\|talk]]) 00:53, 11 July 2015 (UTC) == The lede - as opposed to? == "so calling a function f twice with the same value for an argument x will produce the same result f(x) each time" As opposed to all those other computer languages where calling f(x) produces different results each time for the same x? Perhaps there is an important idea there but if so it is pretty fucking badly expressed. Is it just that there are no global variables? If so, yawn.
