WHY JAVASCRIPT FUNCTIONAL PROGRAMMING IS SO HARD?
Download as pptx, pdf3 likes1,347 views
Functional programming in JavaScript can be difficult for several reasons: 1) Imperative programming habits from loops and conditionals make functional concepts like pure functions, immutability, and function chaining hard to adopt. 2) Lack of understanding of modern JavaScript features like map, filter, reduce, and concepts like currying, partial application, and tail call optimization. 3) Unfamiliar math terms like functors, applicatives, and monads that describe functional patterns intimidate many developers. 4) Most developers want to just see code examples rather than study underlying functional concepts.

Why Functional Programming So Hard?
Why Functional Programming So Hard?Ilya Sidorov Functional programming concepts in JavaScript such as pure functions, immutable data, and higher-order functions are difficult for most developers due to their imperative programming habits, lack of understanding modern JavaScript features, and an aversion to learning underlying functional math concepts. Understanding core functional utilities like map, filter, reduce, and zip as well as concepts like functors, applicatives, and monads requires overcoming years of imperative thinking and a willingness to understand concepts rather than just code. Reading Ramda tests and Fantasy Land specifications can help familiarize developers with a functional style of programming.

WHY WHEN AND HOW TO USED?
GENERAL STRUCTURE OF INLINE FUNCTION
EXAMPLE WITH PROGRAM CODE
Advanced Javascript
Advanced JavascriptDhruvin Shah 1) The document discusses advanced JavaScript topics like hoisting, strict mode, functions as objects, prototypes, closures, and important JavaScript functions like call, apply, bind.
2) It provides examples of hoisting, strict mode, best practices for avoiding globals and type comparisons, and functions, objects, and prototypes.
3) Important JavaScript functions covered include timing functions like setTimeout and setInterval, global objects like window, location, and navigator, and newer JavaScript versions and APIs.
Inline functions & macros
Inline functions & macrosAnand Kumar Inline functions allow function code to be expanded at the point of call at compile time for improved performance. They are declared with the "inline" keyword and behave like regular functions but with type checking and argument evaluation. Macros are preprocessor directives that perform simple textual substitution and lack type checking, so they are more error prone than inline functions. The key differences between inline functions and macros are that inline functions are parsed by the compiler while macros are expanded by the preprocessor, and inline functions support features like debugging that macros do not.
Functions in javascript
Functions in javascriptbaabtra.com - No. 1 supplier of quality freshers The document provides information about a mentoring program run by Baabtra-Mentoring Partner including a trainee's typing speed progress over 3 weeks, jobs applied to with current statuses, an introduction to functions in Javascript covering definitions, advantages, examples, and local and global variables. Contact details for Baabtra are also provided at the end.
Books
BooksSteven Foster Murray The document discusses JavaScript functions as first-class objects that can be passed as arguments, returned from other functions, and stored in variables. It explains that functions can be defined using function declarations or function expressions. Function declarations are hoisted to the top of their scope, while function expressions must be assigned to variables. Immediately invoked function expressions (IIFEs) allow defining anonymous functions that execute right away, protecting private variables from polluting the global scope.
Inline function in C++
Inline function in C++Learn By Watch The document discusses inline functions in C++. It explains that inline functions are replaced by their function code during compilation so they run faster than regular functions but use more memory. It provides examples of declaring and defining inline functions and demonstrates how an inline function call is handled at runtime by replacing it with the function statements. The document also discusses making member functions inline within a class declaration.
Function overloading in c++
Function overloading in c++Learn By Watch This document discusses function overloading in C++. It explains that function overloading allows multiple functions to have the same name but different signatures. A function's signature is defined by its argument list, specifically the number, data types, and order of its arguments. Overloaded functions are differentiated based on these signatures. The document provides examples of overloaded functions and function calls, and notes that an ambiguous call could occur if two functions have identical signatures.
Eclipse Day India 2015 - Java 8 Overview
Eclipse Day India 2015 - Java 8 OverviewEclipse Day India This document provides a brief overview of Java 8 features including functional interfaces, lambda expressions, stream API, and Optional class. It discusses how functional interfaces provide target types for lambda expressions and can have a single abstract method. Lambda expressions allow implementing functional interfaces concisely without anonymous classes. The stream API provides a powerful way to process collections in a declarative way using lambda expressions. The Optional class avoids null pointer exceptions and allows chaining of method calls on objects that may be null.
Functions and tasks in verilog
Functions and tasks in verilogNallapati Anindra Functions and tasks allow for code reusability in Verilog. Functions are used for combinational logic, execute immediately without delays, and return a single value. Tasks can contain delays and timing controls, are used for both combinational and sequential logic, and can pass multiple values through input/output arguments but do not return a value. The key differences are that functions cannot enable other tasks or contain delays while tasks can enable other tasks and functions and can contain delays.
Inline functions
Inline functionsDhwaniHingorani Inline functions allow the compiler to replace function calls with the function's definition during compilation. This avoids overhead from function calls and improves execution speed. Inline functions can increase executable size due to code expansion. They are best for small functions where performance is critical, and care needs to be taken to avoid excessive code bloat.

Notes: Verilog Part 5 - Tasks and Functions
Notes: Verilog Part 5 - Tasks and FunctionsJay Baxi This document discusses the differences between tasks and functions in Verilog. Tasks can contain timing statements while functions cannot. Tasks can have multiple input/output arguments but functions can only have one input argument and do not return output. Functions execute in zero time while tasks can execute in non-zero time. The document also provides examples of tasks like bitwise operators and asymmetric sequence generators. It discusses automatic tasks that prevent issues with shared variables. Functions are used for combinational logic and examples given are parity calculation and shifting. Recursive functions and constant/signed functions are also explained.
virtual function
virtual functionVENNILAV6 Virtual functions allow functions to be overridden in derived classes. The virtual keyword before a function in the base class specifies that the function can be overridden. When a virtual function is called using a base class pointer, the version from the most derived class will be executed due to late binding. This allows runtime polymorphism where the function call is resolved based on the actual object type rather than the pointer variable type.
Inline function in C++
Inline function in C++Jenish Patel Inline functions in C++ allow the compiler to paste the function code directly where the function is called, rather than generating a call to a function definition elsewhere. Inline functions can improve performance by reducing compilation time and function call overhead. However, functions containing loops may not be expanded inline and will generate a warning, as loop variables have dynamic rather than static values. To resolve this, the function can be declared outside the class using the scope resolution operator.
Virtual function
Virtual functionBurhan Ahmed A virtual function a member function which is declared within a base class and is re-defined(Overriden) by a derived class. When you refer to a derived class object using a pointer or a reference to the base class, you can call a virtual function for that object and execute the derived class's version of the function.

Functions in c++
Functions in c++Maaz Hasan This document discusses functions in C++. It defines functions as modules that divide programs into smaller, more manageable pieces. It covers function prototypes, call by reference, return by reference, inline functions, default arguments, constant arguments, recursion, function overloading, friend and virtual functions, and math library functions. The main points are that every C++ program must have a main function, functions can pass arguments by reference to modify the original variables, and functions allow breaking programs into reusable and modular components.
Ruby Functional Programming
Ruby Functional ProgrammingGeison Goes Ruby supports functional programming principles through features like blocks, lambdas, and immutable objects. Some advantages of a functional style include cleaner code with no side effects, referential transparency allowing parallelization and easier debugging, and the use of recursion instead of loops. While Ruby is an imperative language, applying concepts like map, filter, reduce, and avoiding mutable state can make code more clear and maintainable.
Inline Functions and Default arguments
Inline Functions and Default argumentsNikhil Pandit The document discusses different types of functions in C++ including:
1) Main functions are mandatory while other programs define additional functions. Functions are declared with a return type, name, and parameters.
2) Functions are defined with a syntax including the return type, name, parameters, and body. Functions can be called within other functions or the main function by passing values.
3) Inline functions have their code placed at the call site at compile time to avoid function call overhead. They are defined using the inline keyword before the return type for small, single line functions.
4) Functions can have default arguments which are values provided in the declaration that are used if not passed to the function. They must

Functional programming and ruby in functional style
Functional programming and ruby in functional styleNiranjan Sarade This presentation gives brief introduction to Functional Programming and how we can apply functional style of programming in Ruby language. The mentioned references are of great help to prepare this presentation. Especially video talks of Dr. Venkat Subramaniam. Some slides are from his presentation.
Functional programming (FP) is becoming popular day by day ! The initial learning curve for some of the functional languages like Lisp, Haskell, OCaml, Scala, Scheme, Clojure, etc. .... (there are many) might be high, but once you know the problem context and power of functions, you will work like a boss ! You will be more declarative than imperative !
Ruby is an Object Oriented (OO) language and we love Ruby, isn't it ? But once you understand the importance of FP, you would certainly want to apply FP concepts while writing Ruby code. In fact, you might have used some of those concepts unknowingly. Yes, we are talking about lambda, proc .. but, that's not all. Learn to unleash the power of Ruby in the hands of a functional programmer! You can write wonderful (and working) ruby code with functional style. In this presentation, I will briefly go through FP basics and then jump over to code examples.
Finally, it's all about changing your mindset! No one has stopped you to become a Boss !
Java script function
Java script functionsuresh raj sharma Functions are JavaScript procedures that perform tasks and can be defined using the function keyword. Functions can have parameters and a body of statements. Functions allow for nested scopes where bindings inside functions are local while bindings outside any function are global. Function values can be passed as arguments, stored in bindings, and used similarly to other values. The call stack stores the context each time a function is called and removes it when the function returns.
Create and analyse programs
Create and analyse programsDr. C.V. Suresh Babu This document discusses how to analyze programs for efficiency. It explains that programs should be analyzed both before and after implementation to estimate things like computation time and storage requirements. Key aspects to consider include the number of times loops and statements will be executed, how algorithms and data structures are implemented, and how the program's performance compares to alternatives. An example program for computing the nth Fibonacci number is provided to illustrate some of these concepts.

The document concludes by walking through an example of generating code using an annotation processor to recreate part of the Retrofit API.
SOLID Principles
SOLID PrinciplesYi-Huan Chan The document discusses the SOLID principles of object-oriented design, which are:
1. Single Responsibility Principle (SRP) - Each class should have a single responsibility.
2. Open-Closed Principle (OCP) - Software entities should be open for extension but closed for modification.
3. Liskov Substitution Principle (LSP) - Functions that use pointers or references to base classes must be able to use objects of derived classes without knowing it.
4. Interface Segregation Principle (ISP) - Clients shouldn't be forced to depend on interfaces that they don't use.
5. Dependency Inversion Principle (DIP) -

Examples show creating reusable aspects for logging, profiling, and enforcing design patterns.
Why functional programming in C# & F#
Why functional programming in C# & F#Riccardo Terrell The document discusses the key concepts of functional programming including:
- Functional programming uses functions as building blocks and avoids mutable state and side effects.
- Pure functions, immutability, recursion, and function composition are important characteristics.
- Functional programming is well-suited for concurrency since immutable data prevents data races.
- Some benefits of functional programming include simpler code for complex problems, increased correctness from avoiding side effects, and ease of parallelization for concurrency.

Patterns in Python
Patterns in Pythondn This document discusses various design patterns in Python and how they compare to their implementations in other languages like C++. It provides examples of how common patterns from the Gang of Four book like Singleton, Observer, Strategy, and Decorator are simplified or invisible in Python due to features like first-class functions and duck typing. The document aims to illustrate Pythonic ways to implement these patterns without unnecessary complexity.

ClojureScript - Making Front-End development Fun again - John Stevenson - Cod...Codemotion Front-end development has an amazing assortment of libraries and tools, yet it can seem very complex and doest seem much fun. So we'll live code a ClojureScript application (with a bit of help from Git) and show how development doesn't have to be complex or slow. Through live evaluation, we can build a reactive, functional application. Why not take a look at a well designed language that uses modern functional & reactive concepts for building Front-End apps. You are going to have to trans-pile anyway, so why not use a language, libraries and tooling that is bursting with fun to use.

Lecture: Refactoring
Lecture: RefactoringMarcus Denker This document discusses refactoring and metaprogramming. It provides an overview of topics including refactoring basics, refactoring tools in Squeak, and the implementation of the refactoring engine. The refactoring engine uses an abstract syntax tree to represent code and tree rewriting to specify transformations. Reflection is discussed, noting that while refactoring changes a system using itself, the refactoring engine builds its own abstraction layer rather than using the system's reflective capabilities.
SMI - Introduction to Java
SMI - Introduction to JavaSMIJava The document provides an overview of the Samsung University Program and key concepts related to Java programming including:
1. Java is an object-oriented, platform independent programming language that is robust, secure, and supports multithreading.
2. The key concepts of object-oriented programming in Java include encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, and abstraction.
3. Java applications are compiled into bytecode that can run on any system with a Java Virtual Machine, allowing programs to be "write once, run anywhere."

Learn about SPARK tool and it's componemtssiddharth30121 This document discusses Apache Spark, a fast and general engine for large-scale data processing. It provides three key advantages over MapReduce: in-memory processing which is 10-100x faster, support for interactive queries, and integration of streaming, SQL, machine learning, and graph processing. The core abstraction in Spark is the Resilient Distributed Dataset (RDD), which allows data to be partitioned across clusters and cached in memory for faster shared access compared to MapReduce's disk-based approach.

Inter-Mirifica-Navigating-Media-in-the-Modern-World.pptx
Inter-Mirifica-Navigating-Media-in-the-Modern-World.pptxsecretarysocom On Dec. 4, 1963, the Second Vatican Council solemnly approved its first two documents: the constitution on the Sacred Liturgy, Sacrosanctum Concilium, and the decree Inter Mirifica, regarding the mass media. The latter document is much less known than the former one.
Nonetheless, Inter Mirifica offers some crucial principles to guide us in a world where we find ourselves ever more immersed in mass communication: the press, film, television, along with the newer forms of media.
During the preparation for Vatican II, the Church keenly realized the importance of this topic, and Pope John XXIII established a special body to work on a text that might articulate the Church’s teaching on the mass media and promote her action in this area. The result of this work was an extensive document, entitled “On the instruments of social communication,” which was presented to the Council on Nov. 23, 1962.

Vigilanti-Cura-Protecting-the-Faith.pptx
Vigilanti-Cura-Protecting-the-Faith.pptxsecretarysocom On the 29th of June, 1936, Pius XI addressed a pontifical encyclical entitled "Vigilanti Cura" to all the Catholic bishops in the United States. This encyclical was dedicated to "The Motion Picture" and justified his intervention by "the lamentable progress of the motion picture art and industry in the portrayal of sin and vice". I've appropriated the title of his encyclical for my film, putting it to a completely different use to that originally intended. The 'photogenic quality' of the Latin terminology has, however, been preserved and, as per Adorno: "like a neon light which has just been switched on, the commercial and promotional nature of contemporary culture glows brightly". Vigilanti Cura is an irreverent film; insolent and deliberately confusing; a grab-bag of immorality. The montage combines a range of archival imagery from Humanite magazine with images sourced from the media (the military parade of the 14th of July, the current sorry crop of political celebrities ...) or from the cinema (the automatic writing of a puzzle composed of motifs borrowed from existing films). Vigilanti Cura ... or merely a tacit admission of the downfall of contemporary man, drowning in a sea of political, social and religious fundamentalisms. Where is he to be found? Locked in a vis-a-vis with depression and ego. Psychoanalysis no longer serves as a pretext for the dissolution of sexual and social taboos; it now provokes withdrawal into an auto-reflexive isolation, to the extent that societal problems get frozen in the mirror of Auto-Medusification. The mirror has become our idol - let's destroy it!

WHY JAVASCRIPT FUNCTIONAL PROGRAMMING IS SO HARD?
- 1. WHY JAVASCRIPT FUNCTIONAL PROGRAMMING IS SO HARD? Feb 2, 2016 Welcome to Fantasy Land!
- 3. Core Functional Concepts First Class Functions stored in variables, passed as arguments to functions, created within functions and returned from functions Higher Order Functions can accept functions as arguments, and/or can return a function Pure Functions is a function where the return value is only determined by its input values, without observable Side Effects Referential Transparency for a given set of arguments, the same code should always output the same value, only by changing arguments can a output value be different Immutability is an inability for variables to change their values once created. In other words, all things created stay constant
- 4. Core Functional Concepts Currying / Partial Application - ability of a function to return a new function until it receives all it's arguments. Calling a curried function with only some of its arguments is called partial application Tail Call Optimization - ability to avoid allocating a new stack frame for a function call. The most common use is tail-recursion, where a recursive function uses constant stack space. Pattern matching is a form of conditional branching which allows you to concisely match on data structure patterns and bind variables at the same time Lazy Evaluation means that expressions are not evaluated when they are bound to variables, but their evaluation is deferred until their results are needed by other computations

- 13. MONAD Monad is defined computation as sequences of steps: a type with a monad structure defines what it means to chain operations, or nest functions of that type together. This allows the programmer to build pipelines that process data in steps, in which each action is decorated with additional processing rules provided by the monad https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monad_(functional_programming) Monads in JavaScript, https://curiosity-driven.org/monads-in-javascript Functors, Applicatives, And Monads In Pictures http://adit.io/posts/2013-04-17- functors,_applicatives,_and_monads_in_pictures.html
