SkillsCast coming soon.

Session 2 with Scott Whalschin explores how to change your coding mindset and start to think functionally.

Based on this series.

• The math behind FP
• Every function has one input and output
• Currying, partial application again
• Lambdas
• Primitive types, unit, tuples, generics by default
• Designing for partial application - why is parameter order “backwards” compared to OO?
• Being able to read function signatures. Using signatures to find a library function
• Why generics are safer than knowing the type
• Understanding type inference
• Organizing functions in modules

Code project:
Simple RPN stack based calculator. For more advanced people, add a simple parser and a WinForms UI.

Session 2 recap
Should be now be very comfortable with FP concepts
