So for the past year or two I have been reading up on functional programming. I still haven't written anything useful with it but I hope that will change soon. Here is an exchange I had with Chris Seberino on IRC last night which I thought some of you might enjoy.
Summary: Anywhere you would iterate you can also recurse. They are computationally equivalent. And once you get your head around it recursion is just as intuitive. But it usually results in less code and fewer opportunities for bugs among other nice properties.
