Feedback.pl uses RCS which is simple enough.

It handles it very well as far as I can tell, perhaps even better than
Haskell. It is not pure functional because you can have functions with
side effects, but it is still a language based on functions so recursion
is central. I can't really talk more about a language I have not yet
used though :)

A and X are just variable names, so the same.
