It's 2016, why aren't you programming functionally yet?

just let your shitty thread die, bro. posting qt's is not a substitute for quality posting.

Bump 2/100
Because I'm not a fucking faggot and have at least a little bit of self respect.

I am. OOP is for college students.

He should trie posting anime cuties instead.

I am
It's overhyped and I can't do anything without some imperative code

Because pure functional programming is a meme
>>54759764
Because any programming done in a company environment in the 21st century is a collective effort that goes through multiple people and reviews and "your" coding ability doesn't matter. Any solo project will either fail in conception, or become so good that whether or not you have horrendous spaghetti code doesn't matter because you can hire someone to fix it for you.
If it doesn't fail in conception, being unable to spaghetti code your way through it would mean it would fail anyway, and then if it works but nobody uses it who cares what the code looks like.

I know you are memeing, but for others
I saw this tread a week ago.

I write functions in C. /thread
Btw, why is a picture of a kid being used as the thread starter picture?
Because I'm a C trap

Several different people are creating functional programming threads.

He or she?
i want to functionally program a slav gf
Why would anyone claim that a paradigm where state isn't a first-class concept is somehow superior to all other paradigms for all cases when many of them (e.g. vidya, image editing, simulation) are inherently stateful?
>>54762245
read, write, state monad
you can define mutable values as well
the idea is to LIMIT state for great good
>>54762351
>the idea is to LIMIT state for great good
That's already how it's done in languages like C, though. Not everything is stored as a global variable, you keep state local except when you need to communicate it between scopes.
but I am, my current project is a big island of functional purity. I try to minimize all the unpure stuff.

>it's somehow a bad thing that large, complex programs can be comprehended and maintained by fewer people
I am, here's some source code.

>FP in c
why
>>54761299
Thanks anon. I am pretty new to FP. Although having years of experience in imperative paradigm, it's hard to grasp even basic FP concepts. That article is holy grail of information and illustrations always make it easier to grasp concepts which are hard to explain using only words.
>>54760894
That's why I like Scala. Mix FP and Imperative and get the best of both.

I did in college, then I realised that very few in the real world does this and your colleagues will complain that your code is unreadable and unmaintainable if you do.
