hip to the function

Understanding of the prerequisite conditions for an event or institution, including but limited to parties, relationships, and using slang.

Mother Function

A word used to describe outstanding functions.

Mr. Hanes, how do you derive a Mother Function?

Get the Mother Function mug.

Much in the way one who participates in heavy drinking, but can operate in normal society is a functional alcoholic: one who participates in heavy function use, but can program normal programs is doing functional programming. Functions, especially the more street available nested anonymous ones, are highly addictive and may make you want to abandon other forms of control flow entirely. Allows one to write code that operates on other code easily. Nerd Shit.

My favorite functional programming language is Idris, it's like Haskell but for nerds.

functional-beauty

Beauty derived from functionalism.

Adjective form: "functionally-beautiful"

My friend who is an engineer, will stare at the following things, like one gazes at fine art: Wood-burning-stoves, Stirling-engines, Opticas, Orinithropters, Theremins, Brachistichrone-curves, and Derigibles; because they have a functional-beauty derived from the elegant way they achieve their goals.

Many "functionalist" buildings are not functionally-beautiful, because the designers often forego the shortest/quickest paths in favor of a cumbersome grid-like floorplan.
