4 Hour Virtual Training on Learn Functional Programming with Python 3

About the Course

Functional Programming is a revolutionary way of writing code, and is rapidly gaining traction in the world of software development. While Object-Oriented and/or Procedural Programming is still the most popular programming paradigm, several problems come about when using it - hard-to-find bugs, tightly-coupled code, very difficult to scale. Functional programming allows us to solve or avoid all these problems by taking a very different approach to writing software. By learning and following the core concepts of Functional Programming, you can quickly write more maintainable, flexible, and beautiful code.
