Functional programming in Java : how to improve your Java programs using functional techniques / Pierre-Yves Saumont. - xx, 452 pages : illustrations.
Includes bibliographical references (pages 438-439) and index.
What is functional programming -- Using functions in Java -- Making Java more functional -- Recursion, corecursion, and memorization -- Data handling with lists -- Dealing with optimal data -- Handling errors and exceptions -- Advance list handling -- Working with laziness 00 More data handling with trees -- Solving real problems with advanced trees -- Jandling state mutation in a functional way -- Functional input / output -- Sharing mutable state with actors -- Solving common problems functionally.
Functional Programming in Java teaches Java developers how to incorporate the most powerful benefits of functional programming into new and existing Java code. You'll learn to think functionally about coding tasks in Java and use FP to make your applications easier to understand, optimize, maintain, and scale. About the Technology Here's a bold statement: learn functional programming and you'll be a better Java developer. Fortunately, you don't have to master every aspect of FP to get a big payoff. If you take in a few core principles, you'll see an immediate boost in the scalability, readability, and maintainability of your code. And did we mention that you'll have fewer bugs? Let's get started! About the Book Functional Programming in Java teaches you how to incorporate the powerful benefits of functional programming into new and existing Java code. This book uses easy-to-grasp examples, exercises, and illustrations to teach core FP principles such as referential transparency, immutability, persistence, and laziness. Along the way, you'll discover which of the new functionally inspired features of Java 8 will help you most. What's Inside Writing code that's easier to read and reason about Safer concurrent and parallel programming Handling errors without exceptions Java 8 features like lambdas, method references, and functional interfaces About the Reader Written for Java developers with no previous FP experience. About the Author Pierre-Yves Saumont is a seasoned Java developer with three decades of experience designing and building enterprise software. He is an R&D engineer at Alcatel-Lucent Submarine Networks.
