[ASSERTION, TIP] Webel: Mathematica is functional programming on steroids (and has nearly everything else, except for decent in-built OO support, although you can make some progress with Abstract Data Types and even some inheritance).

[ANTI-PATTERN, ASSERTION] Webel: The single biggest disease in the world of IT is the idea that somehow mathematics is bad, or not useful, or not efficient, and that getting people who don't like maths to make stuff up (badly) in coding languages (rather than using maths) is ok.
