About the Technology
Functional programming changes the way you think about code. For C# developers, FP techniques can greatly improve state management, concurrency, event handling, and long-term code maintenance. And C# offers the flexibility that allows you to benefit fully from the application of functional techniques. This book gives you the awesome power of a new perspective.
About the Book
Functional Programming in C# teaches you to apply functional thinking to real-world problems using the C# language. You'll start by learning the principles of functional programming and the language features that allow you to program functionally. As you explore the many practical examples, you'll learn the power of function composition, data flow programming, immutable data structures, and monadic composition with LINQ.

Paperback. Condition: New. Functional programming is a way of thinking about programs that emphasizes functions, while avoiding state mutation. C# includes a number of functional features and libraries, enabling us to take advantage of these benefits. Functional Programming in C# teaches readers to apply functional thinking to real-world scenarios. They'll start by learning the principles of functional programming, and how they translate in the C# language. By the end of this book, readers will be able to integrate functional techniques, making their C# programs robust and maintainable, and helping them to become more well rounded developers. Key Features: · Introduction to functional programming · Real-world examples · Integrate functional techniques · Become a well rounded developer This book is designed to help C# programmers with an OOP background understand functional thinking. About the Technology: Functional programming is a way of thinking about programs that emphasizes functions, while avoiding state mutation. It allows us to write elegant, intention-revealing code, that shines in testability and support for concurrency. Seller Inventory # LU-9781617293955
