Lots of stories about being bored in class and making programs, so I thought I'd share mine.

The functions feature allow you to define and graph equations with x and y. Well other variables also factor in including program defined variables such as z. That enables 3d orthographic graphs to be drawn.

Then I took it a step further and translated the results into a matrix and used that data to make real 3d projections of my graphs (or other shapes)

A bit serendipitous as my father just gave me back the calculator I used, I will be passing that down to my kids.

Should we call PANDAS a database?

Oh I see I misunderstood then. But still, how is this a database? Without looking into it too much it seems that would either be an ORM or simply state.

I don't understand how this is useful. The purpose of functional programming isn't to make everything immutable, but to use immutability to prevent unnecessary change of state which can result in flaky code. So where's the usefulness in a functional Database?

Also this still isn't functional. Is adding records to a set not mutation?

"Functional Database" is contradictory. Honestly this sounds like a bunch of buzzwords concatenated together. Is there an example or a purpose for this?
