> That's the use of the term 'declarative programming' by the functional programming community. There are some other uses of it.

I came here just to say this. This article repeats an annoyingly religious argument about "declarative programming". It's so dogmatic and skewed a definition that it seems to have excluded the canonical example of declarative programming, prolog. Which, for any serious program, relies heavily on cuts and non-referentially transparent I/O.
