It emphasizes on expression evaluation instead of command execution. Wikipedia When did it all start ? In the 90s, there was a war between declarative programming and imperative programming. Declarative programming then represented by logic programming languages like Prolog and early functional languages like Erlang. And imperative languages were r... | |
