Functional “doing the same thing over and over again and
expecting different results” Albert Einstein
- Clear code - Transparency - Parallelization - Modularity -
Easier debugging
EXAMPLE I
a = 0 def increment a += 1 end RUBY
def increment(a) return a + 1 end RUBY
EXAMPLE II
indexes = [1, 2, 3] indexes << 4 indexes #
[1,2,3,4] RUBY
indexes = [1, 2, 3] new_indexes = indexes ++ [4]
Elixir
EXAMPLE III
result = func1(a, b) + func2(a, c)
func1(a, b) func2(a, c)
func1(a, b) func2(a, c) } parallelization
