Practical Functional Programming - Pick Two

Explore functional programming concepts in JavaScript through this 27-minute conference talk from JSConf EU 2014. Delve into the world of immutable data, recursion, laziness, type systems, and static analysis, discovering how these tools can enhance your programming skills. Learn why functional programming techniques are not just academic concepts but practical tools for real-world software engineering. Understand how you may already be using some of these techniques without realizing it, and gain inspiration to approach programming from a new perspective. Discover how consciously applying these methods can lead to more understandable, testable, and adaptable programs, ultimately allowing computers to solve more problems for you.
