Interesting blog by John Carmack

If the name of John Carmack does not ring a bell look for him with google. This writing is a plea for a functional style of programming. One of the benefits of pure functions is testability :wink: (you know I would come up with this)

All the best on your new endeavor. You know I often disagreed with you on the topic of testing, but it is good to hear that you found an environment that better fits your preferred model of working with code.

Also, about the article you posted, interesting endorsement of functional programming by a C++ veteran. Good to see that different schools of thought are meeting and learning from each other.

Last Post!

And again a message, in the thread above, was hidden because flagged by someone here. This settles it. I’m not posting anything anymore here. Good luck.
