Apologies, my mistake.

First paragraph on the Wikipedia page for Functional Programming [1]:

"In computer science, functional programming is a programming paradigm—a style of building the structure and elements of computer programs—that treats computation as the evaluation of mathematical functions and avoids changing-state and mutable data. It is a declarative programming paradigm, which means programming is done with expressions[1] or declarations[2] instead of statements."

I'll stick with my definition.

Hope that clears it up.

With your definition, is Lisp a functional language? Is it expression-oriented or statement-oriented?
