There's nothing in Functional Programming that stops you from writing in an Object Oriented idiom...
There are no objects in a pure functional language. No mutable types. Could you give an example of what you mean please?
Oh, right, there is no mutability. There is just some context you chain from one function to another, that gets abstracting exactly as changes into some existing state.
Oh, and all that running in a mutability place-oriented imperative machine.
