Tulsa Developers Association: Level Up on Functional Programming by Rebuilding LINQ
Cameron Presley
When taking your first steps into functional programming, you’ll quickly run into blog posts talking about how to simplify complex loops by using the trinity of list operations: map, filter, and reduce. But what are these methods actually doing under the hood to help simplify your code?
If you’re familiar with the .NET landscape, then you already have experience with an implementation of the trinity within LINQ (Language Integrated Query).However, what if I told you that by learning how LINQ implements map (Select), filter (Where), and reduce (Aggregate), you actually know how other languages implement the same constructs?
Intended for C# developers who have some experience with LINQ and an interest in learning functional programming, by the end of this session, you will have learned how to work with the Func type, generics, and extension methods!
This will be recorded and made available soon after. You can find recordings on https://usergroup.tv and https://youtube.com/@tulsadnug
