Monad is a design pattern used to describe computations as a series of steps. They manage side effects in pure functional languages but can also be used in other languages to control complexity.
I’m pleased to announce the release of Incremental (well commented mli here), a powerful library for building self-adjusting computations, i.e., computations...
Programming languages come in a variety of different paradigms. Even so, there tend to be two main camps along the language front. There are static languages and there are dynamic languages. To avoid too much history and any sort of in-depth analysis, this article will simplify things with a number of assumptions. One…
In this port to Swift of the great of Haskell's "Functors, Applicatives, And Monads In Pictures" we are going to look at these functional programming concepts aided by some very helpful pictures.
