Learning Functional Programming in Go

The clipperhouse/gen tool

Though there are several generics code generation tools available, let's look at my personal favorite, clipperhouse/gen.

We get the following functions for free with the clipperhouse/gen tool:

Aggregation	Filter	Map	Misc
Aggregate[T]	All	Select[T]	List
Average	Any	Where	Ring
Average[T]	Distinct	Set
Count	DistinctBy	stringer
Max	First
Max[T]	GroupBy[T]
MaxBy	Shuffle
Min	Sort
Min[T]	SortBy
MinBy

gen is a code-generation tool for Go. It's intended to offer generics-like functionality for your types. Out of the box, it offers LINQ/underscore-inspired methods.
