oop - Functional programming vs Object Oriented programming
Functional Programming for Everyday .NET Development, by Jeremy Miller. A great article (although poorly formatted) showing many techniques and practical, real-world examples of FP on C#. Real-World Functional Programming, by Tomas Petricek. A great book that deals mainly with FP concepts, trying to explain what they are, when they should be used.
What's the difference between functional, structured and …
Functional programming is also declarative programming -- the structure given to your code corresponds to its meaning -- a program is a function that changes the state of the world. Procedural programming is what you'd consider "typical" programming in any C language or its descendants, including OO languages such as Java and C++.
What is functional programming? - Stack Overflow

functional programming - How can you do anything useful …
2009年6月20日 · I was skeptical at first, but I jumped on the functional programming train a few years ago and fell in love with it. The trick with functional programming is being able to recognize patterns, particular variable assignments, and move the imperative state to the stack. A for-loop, for example, becomes recursion:
Functional languages: Real-life Examples - Stack Overflow
2009年10月5日 · There are quite a few listed on Functional Programming in the Real World. From the site: The main criterion for being real-world is that the program was written primarily to perform some task, not primarily to experiment with functional programming.
functional programming - F# advanced exercises - Stack Overflow
They are not limited to functional programming but their mathematical nature is well-suited to F# and other functional languages. Yet Another Project Euler Series is a good resource to get started with Project Euler in F#. I used to learn Prolog through 99 problems but I saw people learn Lisp, Haskell, OCaml, etc through them as well. I think ...
Newest 'functional-programming' Questions - Stack Overflow
I am new to Haskell and functional programming. I am trying to write the 3-way merge sort algorithm in Haskell. Problem is, when I run the code in GHCi it just returns *** Exception: stack overflow.
What is immutability and why should I worry about it?
Many functional programming languages, such as Lisp, Haskell, Erlang, F# and Clojure, encourage immutable data structures by their very nature. It is for this reason that they are enjoying a resurgence of interest as we move towards increasingly complex multi-threaded application development and many-computer computer architectures.
Efficiency of purely functional programming - Stack Overflow
2010年1月2日 · According to Pippenger [1996], when comparing a Lisp system that is purely functional (and has strict evaluation semantics, not lazy) to one that can mutate data, an algorithm written for the impure Lisp that runs in O(n) can be translated to an algorithm in the pure Lisp that runs in O(n log n) time (based on work by Ben-Amram and Galil [1992] about simulating …
Is functional GUI programming possible? - Stack Overflow
Functional Reactive Programming is a more functional approach, but I find it somewhat harder to use as it relies on quite advanced Haskell features (such as arrows). However, it is very elegant in a large number of cases. It's limitation is that you cannot easily encode a state machine (which is a useful mental model for reactive programs).
