Higher-Order Functions and Delegates
In this chapter, we’ll dive into higher-order functions and delegates in C#. These concepts are crucial in functional programming and will help you write more flexible and maintainable code.
Higher-order functions are simply functions that can take other functions as arguments or return a function. This might sound complex, but don’t worry; we’ll break it down with clear examples and explanations. Higher-order functions are a key part of functional programming, allowing you to write code that’s both more concise and more expressive.
Delegates in C# are closely related to higher-order functions. They are like variables for methods, allowing you to pass methods as arguments or store them as values. This chapter ...
