Meijer Giving Functional Programming Intro Course Online
Erik Meijer, an excellent lecturer and one of the smartest people at Microsoft, is giving a 13-part lecture series on “Functional Programming Fundamentals.” It begins here.
I am absolutely positive this will be worth the time invested. I just listened to the first lecture, ordered the textbook, and fired up MonoDevelop to do the homework from the first lecture…
Update: That was fun. It highlighted that I don’t know LINQ as well as I ought: I spent more time trying to deal with flattening lists than with the quicksort algorithm…
Me, too. Best thing they’ve done in a long time.
Looks interesting. The text book is available in Books24x7 for those of you with access through your local library or company.
