A comprehensive guide to functional programming in C#!

Functional Programming in C# provides a unique and fresh approach to programming in C#. The book focuses on providing solutions to real development problems with functional programming methods. Inside, C# expert and MVP Oliver Sturm explains the details of relevant language features in C# and describes the theory and practice of using functional techniques in C#. Sturm provides practical and versatile examples, which combine approaches to solve problems in several different areas, including complex scenarios like concurrency and high-performance calculation frameworks as well as simpler use cases like Web Services and business logic implementation. Functional Programming in C# will help programmers find a solution without leaving their programming language and show them the benefits and limitations of C# programming with the primary aim of helping programmers make the most out of what they already know.

Functional Programming in C#:

• Demonstrates how to use currying to convert multi-parameter functions into function chains

• Walks you through using the function construction techniques of partial application and composition to create specialized functions out of general-purpose curried function chains

• Provides coverage of memoization and its use for caching of previously retrieved or calculated return values

• Details the use of monads in functional programming and shows you their relevance to C# programming as well as practical implementations and their limits
