once value has been set, we can't override its

value

Return new value, instead of altering

existing ones

Give me five functions and I’ll raise up the world

[map; filter; reduce; collect; zip]

let source = [ 1; 2; 3]

let result =

List.map (fun x -> x*2) source

val result : int list = [2; 4; 6]

map

let source = [ 1; 2; 3]

let result =

List.filter (fun x -> x > 1) source

val result : int list = [2; 3]

filter

let source = [ 1; 2; 3]

let result =

List.reduce (fun acc curr -> acc + curr) source

val result : int = 6

reduce

let source = [ [ 1; 2; 3]; [ 4; 5 ] ]

let result =

List.collect (fun x -> x) source

val result : int list = [1; 2; 3; 4; 5; 6]

collect

let source1 = [ 1; 2; 3]

let source2 = [‘A’;’B’;’C’]

let result =

List.zip source1 source2

val res : (int * char) list = [(1, 'A'); (2, 'B'); (3, 'C')]

zip

Functional Reactive Programming

Functional Reactive Programming

A programming paradigm oriented around data flows

and the propagation of change.

Reactive programming

Reactive systems are responsive, resilient, elastic and message driven

Reactive extensions

• a set of types representing asynchronous data streams

• a set of operators to query asynchronous data streams

• a set of types to parameterize concurrency

Reactive extensions

RX = Observables + LINQ + Schedulers

The Observable type adds two missing semantics to the Gang of Four's Observer pattern, which are available in the Iterable type:

• The ability for the producer to signal to the consumer that there is no more data available

• The ability for the producer to signal to the consumer that an error has occurred

Recap

• Functional programming

• Reactive programming

• Reactive extensions (Rx.*)

FRP is agnostic about languages. It's a mindset
