Thats an interesting observation that had not occured to me 
but I think you are right. What is interesting to me is that 
when I'm doing "pure" science/math type programmes 
I tend to adopt a functional style rather than an OO style.

Functional programming just seems to suit the nature 
of math/science type problems for me.
