I recently started studying functional programming using Haskell and came upon this article on the official Haskell wiki: How to read Haskell.
The article claims that short variable names such as x, xs, and f are fitting for Haskell code, because of conciseness and abstraction. In essence, it claims…

When would you NOT want to use functional programming? What is it not so good at?
I am more looking for disadvantages of the paradigm as a whole, not things like "not widely used", or "no good debugger available". Those answers may be correct as of now, but they deal with FP being a new concept (an…

It seems to me that functional programming is a great thing. It eliminates state and makes it much easier to automatically make code run in parallel.
Many programmers who were first taught imperative programming styles find it very difficult to learn functional programming, because it is so different…

I have read some in the WWW on this topic and I didn't really find a 'definitive demotivator'.
It's not much about my personal attitude to the OOP…

I know this is a silly question but i don't understand Access Modifiers in OOP.
Why do we make for example in JAVA instance variables private and then use public getter and setter methods to access them? I mean whats the reasoning/logic behind this?

Frameworks being all OOP, would it not be wise to go into frameworks without having a solid background in OOP? I can write basic classes but nothing too fancy or abstract.
