The Imperatives Must Go - Functional Programming in Modern C++

Explore functional programming techniques in modern C++ through this conference talk from CppCon 2022. Discover how Haskell concepts have influenced mainstream languages and learn to apply functional programming ideas to solve software complexity problems. Examine the functional aspects of current STL, including lambdas, closures, std::function, and lazy ranges. Gain insights into declarative programming styles that can make code shorter, clearer, and faster. Delve into advanced topics such as algebraic data types, composition, lifting, currying, and partial application. Learn about upcoming functional programming features in future C++ standards, including monadic extensions to std::future, std::optional, and std::expected.
