That is, I am asking with a very pragmatic definition of FP in mind! Even something such as y = sin(x), copy-on-write or returning constant objects or containers from a function would be off-limits. If you would define object-oriented programming with the same strictness, everything that is not an object and uses mutable values would be forbidden. But that's perhaps a "no true Scotsman" kind of argument. Of course one can define functional programming so that no local mutable state and no side effects are possible, and then point out the obvious disadvantages. I am wondering what other people experience as disadvantages of functional programming? ( edit: with this I mean avoiding side effects in functions, or, in FP jargon, making extensive use of " referential transparency" where possible and practical, see below).
