Oh yes, this. Using Go sometimes feels like playing with barbed wire, instead of a sponge.
I haven't used it yet, but doesn't Go allow any kind of functional programming? At least the basics of high-order functions?
Higher order functions, yes. Anonymous functions, yes. Recursive functions, yes.
But, no map, reduce, filter, pattern matching, and some other stuff that make the language as expressive and concise as FP can be.
