• Define Recursion - See Recursion

  Lately, I've noticed a few blogs are doing the come back to basics post, such as Scott Hanselman's . I think that's an effort that should be lauded, because many have a tendency to go off on pretty advanced topics, yet not provide enough for...

• Concurrency in .NET - Learning from Erlang

  I'm finally getting back to my concurrency in .NET posts after a brief hiatus after I got sidetracked on various other functional programming issues such as some language oriented programming and functional C#. In the previous post , I talked about... Posted Jun 18 2008, 05:21 PM by Matthew.Podwysocki with | with 3 comment(s) Filed under: C#, Concurrency, F#, Functional Programming

• Functional C# - Learn from F# and LINQ

  In the last installment of Functional C# , I covered a bit about creating delayed evaluation lists based upon unfolding constructs and generating lists from external resources. Those are some of the higher level high order functions you can do in C#,... Posted Jun 16 2008, 07:25 PM by Matthew.Podwysocki with | with 7 comment(s) Filed under: C#, F#, Functional Programming

• Functional C# - Unfolding Lists

  In a previous post , I talked about how I thought C# has some significant drawbacks from being considered a more functional language. But, that wasn't to exclude it as a language altogether, as it has some pretty useful features. Lately, when I have...

• Functional C# Revisited - Into the Great Void

  Lately, I've been doing some functional C# in both user groups and on this blog. As the C# language has evolved it has definitely taken some functional programming aspects, such as high order functions, extension methods, LINQ and so on. But with...

• Language Oriented Programming and Functional Unit Testing in F#

  As I've covered earlier , I'm very interested in the unit testing and behavior testing story in F# and functional programming. And as I've indicated earlier, I'm pretty fascinated by Domain Specific Languages (DSLs) as well in this regard...

• NoVA Code Camp Wrapup and Thoughts

  This past weekend was the Northern Virginia Code Camp in Reston, Virginia. There was a pretty good turnout for my two sessions which were the first two of the day. Unfortunately, I could not stay the whole day to attend some of the other sessions including...

• Thinking in Concurrently in .NET

  In recent posts, you've found that I've been harping on immutability and side effect free functions. There is a general theme emerging from this and some real reasons why I'm pointing it out. One of the things that I'm interested in is... Posted May 12 2008, 07:24 PM by Matthew.Podwysocki with | with 8 comment(s) Filed under: C#, F#, Functional Programming
