Functional Programming offers a fundamental shift in the way you design your applications by focusing on the use and composition of pure functions to create programs that are robust, extensible, and easy to reason about. The traditional implementation of PHP codebase has been in the object-oriented paradigm. This course teaches you to think about coding problems in terms of the composition of pure functions. The course starts by covering PHP7’s internal closure object, enabling you to write very powerful functions. This course will help you think about problem solutions from the perspective of combining pure code-like pieces of a puzzle. Then, it provides helpful techniques and insights such as lazy function evaluation and currying that facilitate composing functions together. Finally, the course finalizes with taking an imperative program, and using pure function composition and learning about a functional library called PRamda. Style and Approach: This course follows an easy-to-follow, from theoretical to practical, approach to bring your applications up to a functional way of thinking. Each step in the course is self-contained and moves you closer to the end goal you seek: elegant code through functional composition. Learn: ✓ Find out about PHP7’s internal closure object to write very powerful higher-order functions ✓ Explore the benefits of writing functionally versus other paradigms ✓ Get to know about the fundamental principles of functional programming applied to PHP ✓ See function evaluation strategies in-depth and simulate a lazy invocation ✓ Tackle real-world scenarios that involve impure operations such as data validation and error handling ✓ Learn about specific techniques such as currying and partial function application ✓ Get exposure to a completely functional PHP library called PRamda Features: ✓ Harness the power and depth of PHP 7 when it comes to modularity and writing concise functions ✓ Learn powerful techniques to create very elegant, declarative, data flows that require invoking impure operations ✓ Refactor imperative code to be more testable, robust, and easier to debug Lessons: 1.
