Below is the description for the talk:
Functional Programming has seen a recent upsurge in popularity due in
part to performance improvements in functional languages and also due
to the advent of web and parallel programming, two domains in which FP
offers some advantages over previous techniques. In my talk, I will
discuss my book "Land of Lisp", and give examples of functional
programming techniques from the book. I will then discuss FP
programming techniques in general, giving a survey strategies for
using FP to develop large software systems. This will include
discussions and advanced examples of FP use in languages beyond Lisp.
