The industry is moving towards Functional Programming.
Java 8 introduced lambdas and the JVM hosts a number of functional languages.
The .Net world has good support for FP in both C# and F#.
Apple has introduced Swift as their primary language for iOS development, a language heavily influenced by FP.
But what exactly is functional programming all about?

Who likes FP?
“ And that’s why I think functional
programming is a natural successor to
object-oriented programming. ”
— Dave Thomas, Pragmatic Programmers [2]
“ Without understanding functional
programming, you can’t invent MapReduce ”
— Joel Spolsky [3]
“ ...it’s almost certainly true that functional
programming is the next big thing. ”
— Uncle Bob Martin [4]
6. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
“ No matter what language you work
in, programming in a functional style
provides benefits. You should do it
whenever it is convenient, and you
should think hard about the decision
when it isn’t convenient. ”
— John Carmack, ID Software [5]
7. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
But what exactly is
“Functional Programming”?
8. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
A simple programming example
Say I give you an array of integers, and I want every
one of them doubled.
How would you write it?
9. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
A simple programming example
I have this:
[1,3,6]
I want this:
[2,6,12]
10. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
A simple programming example
public static void doubleAll(int[] numbers) {
for (int i=0; i < numbers.length; i++) {
numbers[i] = numbers[i] * 2;
}
}
11. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
A simple programming example
Sorry, I forgot to mention that you cannot do
in-place mutation on the list of numbers I give you.
Please try again.
12. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
A simple programming example
Our first try had a void return type:
public static void doubleAll(int[] numbers) {
for (int i=0; i < numbers.length; i++) {
numbers[i] = numbers[i] * 2;
}
}
Now we have to return a result:
public static int[] doubleAll(int[] numbers) {
int[] nums2 = new int[numbers.length];
for (int i=0; i < numbers.length; i++) {
nums2[i] = numbers[i] * 2;
}
return nums2;
}
13. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
A simple programming example
Looking much better, but you can’t mutate any
collection, appending to the new array won’t work.
Also, you can’t vary your variables (i++).
Please try again.
14. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
A simple programming example
???
public static int[] doubleAll(int[] numbers) {
int[] nums2 = new int[numbers.length];
for (int i=0; i < numbers.length; i++) {
nums2[i] = numbers[i] * 2;
}
return nums2;
}
15. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
Let’s try giving a definition of
Functional Programming
16. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
Functional Programming, noun:
Functional Programming is a
list of things you CAN’T do.
[10]
17. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
You can’t vary your variables
1> X = 42.
42
2> X = X + 1.
** exception error:
no match of right hand
side value 43
18. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
No while/for loops. Sorry :-(
int i;
for (i=1; i<=3; i++) {
System.out.println(i);
}
19. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
You can’t mutate/change your data structures
Python
>>> list1 = [1,2,3]
>>> list2 = list1
>>> print list1.reverse()
None
>>> list1
[3, 2, 1]
>>> list2
[3, 2, 1]
Haskell
> let list1 = [1,2,3]
> let list2 = list1
> reverse(list1)
[3,2,1]
> list1
[1,2,3]
> list2
[1,2,3]
20. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
You can’t have any side e↵ects
21. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
Are you kidding me?
How can anyone program like this???
22. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
GOTO 10
This sounds like
“You can’t have GOTO statements”
See Hughes and Dijkstra [1, 6]
23. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
It’s not about what we cannot
do.
24. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
We need a better definition of
Functional Programming.

26. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
Functional Programming, noun:
“ Functional programming is so called because a
program consists entirely of functions. ”
— John Hughes, Why Functional Programming Matters [1, p. 1]
27. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
OK... so what exactly is a function?
28. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
An example function
f(x) = 2x2 2x + 3
1 1 2 3
4
6
8
10
12
14
x
y
29. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
Variables in functions
f(x) = 2x2 2x + 3
When we evaluate the function:
f(2) = 8 4 + 3 = 7
• The value of x will not change inside the function body.
30. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
Variables in functions
f(x) = 2x2 2x + 3
When we evaluate the function:
f(2) = 8 4 + 3 = 7
• The value of x will not change inside the function body.
• Same input, same output. Every time. (Referential
Transparency)
31. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
Variables in functions
f(x) = 2x2 2x + 3
When we evaluate the function:
f(2) = 8 4 + 3 = 7
• The value of x will not change inside the function body.
• Same input, same output. Every time. (Referential
Transparency)
• We can call f multiple times without any side e↵ects.
32. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
Variables in functions
f(x) = 2x2 2x + 3
When we evaluate the function:
f(2) = 8 4 + 3 = 7
• The value of x will not change inside the function body.
• Same input, same output. Every time. (Referential
Transparency)
• We can call f multiple times without any side e↵ects.
• We don’t have to recalculate f(2), we can replace any
occurrence of f(2) with 7.
33. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
Varying variables does not make sense
x = x + 1
x x = 1
0 = 1
) x 6= x + 1
34. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
Values are functions
Constant values are just functions with no input parameters
x = 42
Python function definition:
def x():
return 42
Haskell function definition:
x = 42
35. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
Functions can be composed
h(x) = (f g)(x) = f(g(x))
or
h = f g
36. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
Higher-order Functions
Functions can take functions as input.
Functions can return functions as the result.
h(f, g, x) = f(x) + g(2)
37. Introduction Definition Function Recap Common Idioms Imperative Comparison Challenges! Industry Use Now what?
Higher-order Functions
The derivative of f(x) returns another function.
f(x) = 2x2
2x + 3
