Journey Into Functional Programming in C++

via CodeSignal Path

Overview

This comprehensive path aims to help you master the realm of functional programming within C++. You will first solidify understanding of advanced function mechanics before diving into more complex topics such as functional objects, monads, and the use of powerful libraries like Boost.Range.

Syllabus

  • Mastering Functions in C++
    • This course will help you dive deep into the world of function constructs in C++. You will revisit the basics of functions, explore advanced topics like lambda expressions and recursion, and master techniques essential for efficient and effective function usage within your programs.
  • Designing Higher-Order Functions in C++
    • This course introduces you to advanced aspects of handling functions in C++. You'll learn about function pointers, storing functions as variables, and dynamic function operations, such as passing and returning functions, `std::bind`, and its alternatives.
  • Standard Higher-Order Functions in C++
    • Discover the power and convenience of higher-order functions in the Standard Template Library (STL). You will learn about various STL algorithms, including those for iteration, conditional checks, and accumulation, enabling more functional approaches to C++ programming.
  • Boost.Range Library
    • This course will introduce you to the Boost.Range library, a powerful toolset for range operations, iterators, and range-based algorithms. You will learn to utilize this library for writing cleaner and more efficient C++ code.
  • Functional Programming Techniques
    • This course dives into the intricacies of functional objects in C++, with a focus on functors, currying, and partial application. You'll learn how to harness these powerful concepts to create more modular, reusable, and maintainable code.
  • Advanced Functional Programming Techniques
    • This advanced course will introduce you to the concept of monads in C++ and teach you how to implement and compose them. You will explore the design patterns functors, monads, and monad transformers, along with practical usage scenarios.
