Is it harder (or impossible) to implement mutation testing in some languages than others? For example, is it possible to implement mutation testing in functional programming languages?

A:
I don't see any reason why it would be impossible in any language.
I'm certainly no expert, but I would think that mutation testing would be easier in functional languages. Mutations can done by redefining operators in functional languages as easily as functions are defined in other languages.
