Is functional programming easy?

Many programming languages support some degree of functional programming. In some languages, virtually all code follows the functional paradigm. Haskell is one such example. Python, by contrast, does support functional programming but contains features of other programming models as well.

Python does have some features of a functional language. OOP’s concepts like, Classes,Encapsulation,Polymorphism, Inheritance etc.. in Python makes it as a object oriented programming language . In Similar way we can created procedural program through python using loops ,for ,while etc ..and control structure.

Python doesn’t have built in support for efficient manipulation of immutable structures as far as I know. That’s one large knock against it, as immutability can be considered a strong aspect of FP. It also doesn’t support tail-call optimization, which can be a problem when dealing with recursive solutions.
