Great article!
We had a Programming paradigms course this semester where we did Prolog, Py, Huskell and Scala (though we went through most langs in an theory overview including all the ones listed in your article).
That was probably the most fun I had programming in the three years since I enrolled in CS. The different requirements the languages themselves put in front off you are a real brain stretch, especially if you've been used to and locked in a single way of doing things (as most people inevitably are due to the nature of CS studies / work on a particular codebase at work). All in all, I find that these paradigm shifts are the best thing one can do to improve their problem solving (which is the most important skill after all).
Thank you very much for sharing. :)
