... I am confused by the description. Is it possible that someone can put this into "plain language" that a non-programmer and a non-mathematician can understand?

− | : Functional programming languages are many -- explaining the difference to a non-programmer can be hard, but typically Lisp as the grandfather and related languages such a Scheme, Haskell [ {{w|List_of_programming_languages_by_category#Functional_languages|list here}} ] are considered {{w|functional programming}} languages, where Java, C, Basic, Fortan etc typically depending on changing state of variables and are called {{w|Procedural_programming|Procedural}} or {{w|Imperative programming}} programming languages -- The best advice for futher explanation is to read the wikipedia links.
