Why yes . . . .
“Many older languages simply had no way to do this kind of stuff. Other languages let you do it, but it’s hard (for example, C has function pointers, but you have to declare and define the function somewhere else). Object-oriented programming languages aren’t completely convinced that you should be allowed to do anything with functions.”
. . . . mine can, and it is one of the granddaddies – c++
#include <algorithm>
#include <boost/lambda.hpp>
#include <boost/assign.hpp>using namespace boost::lambda;
using namespace boost::assign;vector<string> a = list_of(“hi”)(“there”);
for_each(a.begin(), a.end(), std::cout << _1 << ‘ ‘);
which starts to look awfully like a p language, hmmm . . .
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
my @a = qw (hi there);
map { print $_.’ ‘; } @a;
check out boost::lambda, boost::assign and boost::function
And they say that C++ is verbose!
