Purely functional

I think this article needs to be merged from or to Purely functional. Persistent data structure is a better name for the page (functional is an adjective which therefore violates Wikipedia naming conventions). On the other hand, purely functional has some nice diagrams which I drew to explain the concept :-) What does everyone think? Richard W.M. Jones 18:52, 17 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've never seen "persistent data structure" used in the way this article describes. It may be used that way in some obscure book or two, but in my experience, a persistent data structure is one that is automatically saved when the program exits, as is described in the link to persistence.
