Which functional programming languages have bioinformatics libraries?
bioinformatics, functional-programming
Solution
Do you consider R as a functional and not multi-paradigm language?
If so, R has the biggest set of libraries for bioinformatics. There are many modules in CRAN, but BioConductor is what you are looking for. It as an active community and most of the libraries have been published on peer-review journals.
note: I think that apart from perl, python, and some small efforts in C/C++ and Java, no other programming language has good bioinformatics libraries at all.
Problem
Which functional programming languages have bioinformatics libraries easily available? (Don't include multi-paradigm languages such as Ruby) Update: Listing which major functional programming languages don't currently have easy access to bioinformatics libraries is also welcome.
