Overview
Functional programming is the evaluation of mathematical functions for computational solutions. Together with C++, functional programming allows users to create complex elements and structures for web applications that are not susceptible to side effects and mutations.
This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is aimed at web developers who wish to functional program with C++
By the end of this training, participants will be able to:
- Use functional programming solutions to improve the performance of web applications.
- Avoid data mutation and side effects with functional programming.
- Create web applications in a functional programming style.
Format of the Course
- Interactive lecture and discussion.
- Lots of exercises and practice.
- Hands-on implementation in a live-lab environment.
