This page provides the comparison tables of functional programming instructions between programming languages. Comparison of basic instructions of imperative paradigm is provided by the comparison of basic instructions.




List operations






= Function applications and lists

=
For brevity, these words will have the specified meanings in the following tables (unless noted to be part of language syntax):

funcN
A function. May be unary or n-ary (or always unary for languages without n-ary functions).
func1, func2, etc.
functions of specific arity. func (with no number) is the same as func1, also known as a projection in many languages.
pred
Unary function returning a Boolean value. (ML type: 'a -> bool) (C-like type: bool pred(T t)).
list
The list being operated on.
args
Comma-separated list of one or more argument names, in the form of arg1, arg2, ..., argn.
pattern
A pattern, in languages with pattern matching.
val
Any relevant value, depending on context.




= Numerical operations on lists

=
comp
a binary function that returns a value indicating sort order (an integer in most languages).




= Iterations on lists

=




= Generating lists by combinatorics tools

=
start
first value of range.
step
increment of range.
count
number of items in range.
last
inclusive last value of range.
end
exclusive last value of range.
