C++ Reactive Programming

Functional reactive programming

Almost all modern programming languages support functional programming constructs. Functional programming constructs such as Transform, Apply, Filter, Fold, and so on are good for processing streams. Programming asynchronous data streams using functional programming constructs are generally called functional reactive programming (for all practical purposes). The definition given here is an operational one. Consult the work done by Conal Elliott and Paul Hudak as part of the Haskell community to understand the strict definition. Mixing Reactive Programming with FP is gaining traction among developers these days. The Emergence of libraries such as Rx.Net, RxJava, RxJs, and RxCpp and so on is a testimony to this. ...
