Lambdas, combinators and s-expresions, on my! With the likes of
Clojure, Scala and F#, functional programming has been making a
comeback. Functional ideas have been popping up from systems as large
as Hadoop to ones as small as a multi-core processor. Come find out
what all the fuss is about at "A Functional Fall", by Comcast
Interactive Media and Philly Lambda. We'll be reading and discussing
a variety of functional papers, starting with "Why Functional
Programming Matters". From there, the group will vote on the next
paper to study. The group will run for a total of six meetings
throughout the fall, and we'll meet at the Comcast Center, with the
obligatory migration to a local watering hole to give our brains a
rest afterwards. Hope to see you all there!
You can get the first paper at
