Functional Programming with C++

Prerequisites

• An understanding of procedural/object-oriented programming
• Basic experience with C++

Audience

• Web Developers

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.
