HIGHLIGHT
A crisp introduction to functional programming for .NET developers―with
examples in C# and F#.
DESCRIPTION
Functional programming languages like F#, Erlang, and Scala are attracting
attention as an efficient way to handle the new requirements for programming
multi-processor and high-availability applications. Microsoft’s new F# is a true
functional language and C# uses functional language features for LINQ and
other recent advances.
Real World Functional Programming is a unique tutorial that explores the
functional programming model through the F# and C# languages. The clearly
presented ideas and examples teach readers how functional programming differs
from other approaches. It explains how ideas look in F#―a functional
language―as well as how they can be successfully used to solve programming
problems in C#. Readers build on what they know about .NET and learn where
a functional approach makes the most sense and how to apply it effectively in
those cases.
The reader should have a good working knowledge of C#. No prior exposure to
F# or functional programming is required.
KEY POINTS
• Crystal-clear presentation of core functional programming concepts and
how to apply them with examples in both F# and C#
• How to write efficient functional code for .NET in F#
• Identifies tasks that benefit from a functional programming approach
MARKET INFORMATION
Developers worldwide are adopting functional programming as the answer to
developing for systems that require lots of mission-critical programs to run at the
same time. From telecom switches to high-availability enterprise applications, to
applications designed to run on multi-core processors, functional programming
has many immediate uses. Microsoft’s F# language has created demand for good,
non-academic books on this important topic.

About the Author
Tomas Petricek
discovered functional programming as a graduate student at
Charles University in Prague. He has been a Microsoft C# MVP since 2004 and
is one of the most active members in the F# community. In addition to his work
with F#, he has been using C# 3.0 in a functional way since the early previews in
2005. He interned with the F# team at Microsoft Research, and he has developed
a client/server web framework for F# called F# WebTools. His articles on functional
programming in .NET and various other topics can be found at his web site
tomasp.net.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
