Thanks for replying. This article has explored the difference between imperative and declarative programming. The author also mentioned functional programming.

An idea flashes into my mind. I thought functional has something to do with to break something down to pieces with regards to programming principle. Instead, Functional is probably applied to the sense to work. It's kind of like "hey! It just works! Just don't care about details", which is a bit like declarative programming. This might sound silly, but I am not native English speaker so feel free to point out errors.
