In general, I favour strongly, statically typed functional #programming languages, especially ML and its descendants: OCaml, F#, Clean, Miranda, Haskell, Agda, and Idris. But the following are a few of the strongly, dynamically typed languages (both OO and FP) that I like:
• OO—Smalltalk, Ruby, Python
• FP—Lisp, Scheme, Pure
PS—Those who are in both the Lisp camp and the ML camp of FP would enjoy Pure, a strongly, dynamically typed modern FP language.

@AmenZwa@mathstodon.xyz I love Python during dev and prototyping but dislike in prod and longterm maintenance. Lisp I've always admired from afar, in theory, but my brain/eyes dont like all the parentheses. I love the sheer expressive power of its syntax, however! If I had infinite free time I could see myself taking a deep dive into Clojure.
