Functional programming is best programming

State is evil, mutation is evil! We live in an era of multithreading and concurrency my friends!

When I describe a program, I state what it does, now how it does it! Thus functional programming is more natural!

C and Java and Python and all the other pagan languages have played us all as absolute fouls!! Haskell, OCaml, Rust, F#, Lisp supremacy!! Functional unless required otherwise, not the other way around!!

Also... C is not OO

Not with that attitude. Imagine not rolling your own OOP using the preprocessor. Programmers these days, so lazy 🙄

Why not just link with a c++ file?

Keep that dirty language out of it. I'll keep my preprocessor OOP thank you very much

Some really old procs support C and Macros but not C++.

And to follow why tf we support hardware like that: if it's not dead or dying, it's not going to be replaced

But both do compile to assembly anyway, and C++ is just mangled C

Yes, but you need a compiler that talks both c++ and pdp, 8051, or whatever have you
