Learning that I could pass a -function- as a value blew my mind for sure.

I'd been programming for quite a while at that point, though mostly it was self-taught or procedural/OOP things I had learned in school.

That made a lot of impacts on how I thought about programming; basically until tha point I had never encountered functional programming, and boop it pushed me off a big ol' cliff.
