I thought the opposite of “functional” was “procedural”, not “imperative”. The opposite to the latter is “declarative”. But (nearly) all procedural languages also have declarative constructs, not just imperative ones (certainly Python does). Presumably an “imperative” language would not. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
