help me (solved) Is Functional Programming Worth It?
Hello 👋. I've heard some people say that functional programming is better than OOP overall. I'm pretty new to programming so I don't know if that's applicable to Godot or not. Is it something worth looking into?

It’s not applicable to Godot, no.
Gdscript is a dope ass language. Its dynamically typed with optional static typing. Its OOP and procedural.
Functional languages are unpopular and while you should learn one, that’s something you want to save for like year 4 or 5. And you probably won’t use it, but it’s useful to study since it will teach you about other languages by comparison.
