>> total functional programming [...] The language is not Turing-complete, but an amazing number of algorithms are available nonetheless.

The Dhall language is total.

https://docs.dhall-lang.org/discussions/Safety-guarantees.html#turing-completeness

Of particular interest to Schemers:

"For example, Dhall does not provide language support for recursion. If
you try to define a recursive expression or function you will get a type
error. Lists are the only recursive data structure and the only way to
build or consume lists is through safe primitives guaranteed to
terminate, like List/fold."
