Functional programming is a style of programming emphasizing evaluating expressions, rather than executing commands. In these languages, expressions are formed by using functions to combine basic values. Functional languages are those supporting and encouraging programming in a functional style. On this page, languages are arranged in three groups and levels: 1) Top group: issues spanning multiple unrelated languages. 2) Middle group: types or classes of languages. 3) Bottom group: specific languages, with their own directory category.
