The majority of the languages and frameworks created in the last decade are functional, leading some to predict that the future of programming is functional. Meanwhile, popular object-oriented languages like C# and Java see the introduction of more functional features with every new release, enabling a multiparadigm programming style.
And yet, adoption in the C# community has been slow. Why is this so? One reason, I believe, is the lack of good literature:
- Most FP literature is written in and for functional languages, especially Haskell. For developers with a ...
