Is Functional Programming now the new OO?
Any oldies care to comment - I see a lot of Lisp and Haskell.

When I started coding in the 80's    I think it is fair to say that objectification was considered the way to go. Functional programming was certainly not mainstream. Is Functional Programming now the new OO?

Well, what I've learned of Common Lisp so far has turned my head to functional program. I'll be using C# for new projects at work (whenever the current one finally ends), and everything in that has to be OO. However, I've come up with many ideas on how to put a functional bend on it.
I don't know if functional programming will become a new trend, but I do agree that it makes things easier. Like with any paradigm, I don't think either functional programming or OOP are the 'ultimate answer'.
