In the imperative world, programmers describe in detail the steps that the processor must follow to accomplish a certain goal.In the functional paradigm, the programmer formulates the problem in terms of functions to be executed.<br \/> The benefits of such paradigm is a fast code generation, easier maintenance, high parallelism, and free proofs of soundness and correctness of the algorithms.<br \/> Examples of successful applications includes the chat management of Facebook and Whatsapp. Also companies like T-Mobile, Qualcomm and Tesla Motors heavily use functional code in their programs.<br \/> Are you interested in learning why and how all these good things come in a programming language?<br \/> If you don\u2019t have plans for the evening of April 6th, join us in I.1.12 from 17:00, we have a program for you \ud83d\ude09<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The IEEE Student Branch is glad to invite you for an introductive lesson about the functional programming paradigm.
