Uncover the secrets of functional programming using C# and change the way you approach your applications foreverAbout This VideoThis video focuses on the functional paradigm of C#, which will give you a whole new angle on coding with C#It illustrates the advantages that functional programming brings to the table and the associated coding benefitsThis practical course covers all the aspects of functional programming and provides solutions that can be applied in business scenariosIn DetailFunctional programming makes your application faster, improves performance, and increases your productivity. C# code is written at a higher level of abstraction, so that code will be closer to business requirements, abstracting away many low-level implementation details.This video bridges the language gap for C# developers by showing you how to create and consume functional constructs in C#. We also bridge the domain gap by showing how functional constructs can be applied in business scenarios. We'll take you through lambda expressions and extension methods, and help you develop a deep understanding of the concepts and practices of LINQ and recursion in C#.By the end of the video, you will be able to write code using the best approach and will be able to perform unit testing in functional programming, changing how you write your applications and revolutionizing your projects.
