i want to learn some kind of functional programming language, i'm thinking about haskel, elm, or some kind of lisp
I'm really getting into elixir this past months, probably my favorite language atm. Even though it's not the 'purest' functional langauge out there, there's a bunch of great documentation! Not mentioning some incredible built-in tools, such as rpc and gen-servers (a small thread for state control, the Erlang VM can hold up to 2 million of those, insane stuff).
