I'm fairly certain that mentioning functional programming is going to trigger some people.
... so let's keep it!

Thanks, this is very nice! Ideally we would have a link for each bullet-point to show what we mean. Something like "lexically-scoped" is rather cryptic without any example. I also think it might be better to have this after the Hello World example, but that's not a big deal. I'll go ahead and merge this because it's better than the current page either way. The entire introduction section needs a makeover, but let's start small! |

@Simn , you're welcome! I see you committed this to a "staging" branch. Did I create the PR correctly (from the correct branch)? How often is the staging branch merged to master? |

We don't really have a strategy for merging into master, so it's basically whenever someone feels like it. I've done so just now. |
