At our next meeting we will be taking a deeper look at functional programming (FP). The format of this session will be an open space type meeting where you set the agenda. So, if you have any questions about FP or would like to explore any FP topics further then we'd like to hear from you. Or, you may even want to try some FP techniques either in your favourite imperative language or with any FP language that has caught your eye. | ||
