[Something I wrote a few days back with a few additions] Comprehensions and lambdas have come into python. From where? Haskell [Lambdas have even got into C++ !!] LINQ in C# inspired by comprehensions Generics were not there in C# and Java early editions. Now they've been retrofitted -- Origin SML. Almost every modern language supports garbage collection. Origin Lisp Numpy is just APL with python syntax Hottest DBMSes today are the nosql ones -- couchdb written in erlang. Knuth - Vol 1 is a gigantic exercise on how to do lisp without lisp. Also called Greenspun's 10th law: http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?GreenspunsTenthRuleOfProgramming And heard of google? Uses something called map-reduce. Route: APL -> FPLs -> google Yes FP is very academic -- for those living in the last century. I just assumed we are all in 2013 :-)
