SUMMARY:Level Up on Functional Programming by Rebuilding LINQ
DESCRIPTION:***Please Use Source Link Below to Confirm Event Details***\nDetails\n\n\nWhen 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? \nIf 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?\nIntended 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! \nPresenter: Cameron Presley \nPizza starts at 6:00. Presentation starts at 6:30.
