About fun4j http://www.theserverside.com/discussions/thread.tss?thread_id=60768 It seems to be an api rather than a language. so it's more in the line of op4j, commons functor etc

About fun4j http://www.theserverside.com/discussions/thread.tss?thread_id=60768 How does this compare to Clojure (lisp-based) or Scala (some functional features)? Why yet another functional language for the JVM? :)

About fun4j http://www.theserverside.com/discussions/thread.tss?thread_id=60768 Fun4j aims at bringing concepts from functional programming to the JVM.
It provides developers with a Java API for using functional programming
techniques like anonymous functions, higher order functions and closures.
