Functional Programming: Zero to One
Thursday, Aug 15
8:30 AM - 9:30 AM
Room 102
Description
You've read about Functional Programming everywhere, maybe your boss thinks it's the next big thing, and it sounds kinda cool, but whenever you start to research it you end up in a sea of theory and technical jargon, with no idea how to actually use it in your day job. Very frustrating.
In this session, we will use examples from Java and JavaScript / React to show you how to make the switch, TODAY. We will start with a standard imperative program and refactor it into functional code in a step by step way so you can see how, and why, to do this.
