Ebook: Learn functional programming with Elixir: new foundations for a new world

Thinking functionally -- Working with variables and functions -- Using pattern matching to control the program flow -- Diving into recursion -- Using higher-order functions -- Designing your Elixir applications -- Handling impure functions -- Adding rooms to the game -- Answers to exercises -- Bibliography.;"Elixir's straightforward syntax and this guided tour give you a clean, simple path to learn modern functional programming techniques. Explore immutable values and explicit data transformation, functions, modules, recursive functions, pattern matching, high-order functions, polymorphism, and failure handling, all while avoiding side effects. To get the most out of functional languages, you need to think functionally. This book will get you there."--Page 4 de la couverture.
