SeaFunc is Seattle. SeaFunc is functional. Functional language.

Functional programming. We shall attempt to adjust your software, as
there is something wrong. You're in a C funk. Get out of your C funk.

The Mothership lands at *8 pm* on Wednesday May 27, at Ralph's
Grocery downtown at 4th and Lenora.

For the uninitiated: Functional programming (FP) is a tradition of 

writing and modeling programs as the composition of mathematical
functions.  FP is both a collection of specific language features  
and a powerful way of thinking and reasoning about computation.

Languages associated with the FP way of thinking include: Lisp, ML, 

Scheme, Smalltalk, Haskell, Erlang, and Scala.  Finally, the seeds of 

many progressive and ubiquitous features in C++/Java/C# and 

relatives are modern renditions of features originally d eveloped 

by the FP community.

Anyone interested in the application, extension or construction of
advanced programming languages - functional or not - is encouraged to
come.  We've been meeting every three weeks since June 2004. A typical
showing is 6-10 people.  If you think there must be more to life than
C++, Java, and C#, please join us!
