Learning Functional Programming in Go

Motivation for using FP

The FP style of programming can help you write less code in a more concise and expressive way, with fewer errors. How is that possible? Well, FP treats computation as an evaluation of mathematical functions. FP leverages this computational model (and the work of some brilliant mathematicians and logicians) to enable optimizations and performance gains that are simply not possible using traditional imperative coding techniques.

Developing software is not easy. You must handle numerous non-functional requirements (NFRs) first, such as:

• Complexity
• Extensibility
• Maintainability
• Reliability
• Concurrency
• Scalability

Software is becoming more and more complex. What is the average number of third-party dependencies in your ...
