Functional Programming for End-Users

How can we make functional programming more accessible? We strive to contribute an answer to an often debated question, doing so in the context of an ambitious goal: creating a wide‑spectrum computing environment that can satisfy typical “non‑programmer” end-users as well as computer science students, application programmers, and experienced software engineers. Our empirical approach derives inspiration from the most successful end‑user computing environment and time-honored principles of programming language design
