Leverage Modern Language Constructs to Write High-Quality Code
Faster The functional and concurrent programming language features
supported by modern languages can be challenging, even for
experienced developers. These features may appear intimidating to
OOP programmers because of a misunderstanding of how they work.
Programmers first need to become familiar with the abstract
concepts that underlie these powerful features. In Functional and
Concurrent Programming, Michel Charpentier introduces a core set of
programming language constructs that will help you be productive in
a variety of programming languages-now and in the future.
Charpentier illustrates key concepts with numerous small, focused
code examples, written in Scala, and with case studies that provide
a thorough grounding in functional and concurrent programming
skills. These skills will carry from language to language-including
the most recent incarnations of Java. Using these features will
enable developers and programmers to write high-quality code that
is easier to understand, debug, optimize, and evolve. Key topics
covered include: Recursion and tail recursion Pattern matching and
algebraic datatypes Persistent structures and immutability
Higher-order functions and lambda expressions Lazy evaluation and
streams Threads and thread pools Atomicity and locking
Synchronization and thread-safe objects Lock-free, non-blocking
patterns Futures, promises, and functional-concurrent programming
As a bonus, the book includes a discussion of common typing
strategies used in modern programming languages, including type
inference, subtyping, polymorphism, type classes, type bounds, and
type variance. Most of the code examples are in Scala, which
includes many of the standard features of functional and concurrent
programming; however, no prior knowledge of Scala is assumed. You
should be familiar with concepts such as classes, methods, objects,
types, variables, loops, and conditionals and have enough
programming experience to not be distracted by simple matters of
syntax.
This book, first published in 1931, provides a valuable account of
Rousseau's early years, giving an insight into his later
philosophies, as well as showing the development of his thought.
