Functional Programming in C++

Functional programming is becoming a required skill for all programmers, and for good reason. The functional style of programming lets developers to write more concise code, which tends to have fewer bugs. Functional Programming in C++ teaches developers the practical side of functional programming and what tools C++ provides to develop software in the functional style. KEY FEATURES • Practical-guide • Hands-on examples • Step-by-step instructions This book is for developers who have worked professionally with C++ for 2 or more years. ABOUT THE TECHNOLOGY Broadly speaking, Functional Programming is a style of programming where the main programming building blocks are functions, as opposed to objects and procedures. AUTHOR BIO Ivan Čukić has been teaching modern C++ techniques and functional programming at the Faculty of Mathematics in Belgrade for 6 years and has been using C++ for more than 15 years. He has been researching functional programming in C++ before and during his PhD studies, and uses the techniques in real-world projects. He is one of the core developers in KDE, the largest free/libre open source C++ project.

Functional Programming in C#, Second Edition is fully revised to cover new functional-inspired features in the most recent releases of C#, including tuples, async streams, pattern matching, and records. Each chapter is packed with awesome perspectives and epiphany moments. Functional Programming in C#, Second Edition teaches you to apply functional thinking to real-world problems using the C# language. You'll discover the principles and language features of functional programming, explore C#'s functional language features, and learn how to use them to write code that is concise, elegant, and robust. Through numerous real-world examples, you'll also learn the power of function composition, data flow programming, immutable data structures, and monadic composition with LINQ. Functional programming changes the way you think about code by concentrating your attention on generic, composable behavioursinstead of more complex objects. It gives developers the power to get more done with less code, enables super-safe concurrency that's perfect for multicore processors, and makes your code easy to maintain long-term. C#'s flexibility lets you benefit fully from the application of functional techniques.
