Functional Programming Paradigm

[Rishi Chopra]

How does this paradigm fits with OOP, DOP etc..

[Michał Płachta]

FP, just like Data-Oriented Programming, focuses on data and its transformations. In FP, data is immutable, so your functions become easier to comprehend—they just take inputs and return outputs, and no other changes are possible. This in turn allows you to model your domain more naturally because you are not constrained to objects that encapsulate some internal state and expose behaviors.

What would this book be about ? Core Functional programming concepts that can be applied to languages like Scala, Haskell?

[Michał Płachta]

I tried to show only cor FP concepts that are not only available in Scala, Haskell, but also in F#, and even Java or Python (like pattern matching that has just been introduced for both!)

[Campbell Ritchie]

I have a book showing how Java® can be used as a functional language. Here it is.

[Jignesh Patel]

so the book is not depend on specific language.
