That's an interesting idea of having setter methods return a copy. I hadn't considered that. Also, sorry it took a while for you comment to show up. It was caught by the spam filter and I didn't notice it right away to free it. Thanks John, I’ll look over the presentation. That’s an interesting idea of having setter methods return a copy.

This presentation was a real eye-opener for me: http://www.ccs.neu.edu/home/matthias/Presentations/ecoop2004.pdf You can do side-effect-free OO programming directly, just have “setter” methods return a copy of the object instead of mutating the original (OCaml even has syntactic sugar for this).

One of the main tenets of FP-style languages is to reduce as far as possible the number of side-effects for a given action. <hint>Erlang would be one such language</hint> And if you really like programming with minimal side-effects I invite you to try out functional programming.
