Abstract
There are many techniques commonly used by functional programmers that can be of great use to object oriented developers. We’ll start with a brief introduction to functional programming. Then we’ll spend most of our time looking at some common, real world, problems we see as objected oriented developers and use functional techniques to solve those problems in a clean and concise way.
