What is the best approach to moving a preexisting project from Flash 7/AS2 to Flex/AS3?

How can a simple tree algorithm be coded in a functional language?
Suppose I want to implement a reasonably efficient 'keyword recognition algorithm', that is first given a list of keyword, and must then answer if another given word was in the list. In an imperative language, I would store the keywords in a tree (one node per character). Then, when receiving a word to test, I woul...
