In this authoritative guide, you''ll take on the challenge of learning functional programming from first principles, and start writing Kotlin code that''s easier to read, easier to reuse, better for concurrency, and less prone to bugs and errors.</div> </div> <div style="color: rgb(51,51,51);text-transform: none;text-indent: 0.0px;letter-spacing: normal;font-size: 17.25px;font-style: normal;font-weight: 300;word-spacing: 0.0px;white-space: normal;orphans: 2;widows: 2;background-color: rgb(255,255,255);"> <h2 style="color: inherit;text-transform: lowercase;line-height: 1.1;font-size: 27.0px;font-weight: 300;margin-top: 42.0px;margin-bottom: 10.5px;">about the technology</h2> Kotlin is a new JVM language designed to interoperate with Java and offer an improved developer experience for creating new applications. It''s already a top choice for writing web services, and Android apps. Although it preserves Java''s OO roots, Kotlin really shines when you adopt a functional programming mindset. By learning the core principles and practices of functional programming outlined in this book, you''ll start writing code that''s easier to read, easier to test and reuse, better for concurrency, and less prone to bugs.</div> <div style="color: rgb(51,51,51);text-transform: none;text-indent: 0.0px;letter-spacing: normal;font-size: 17.25px;font-style: normal;font-weight: 300;word-spacing: 0.0px;white-space: normal;orphans: 2;widows: 2;background-color: rgb(255,255,255);"> <h2 style="color: inherit;text-transform: lowercase;line-height: 1.1;font-size: 27.0px;font-weight: 300;margin-top: 42.0px;margin-bottom: 10.5px;">about the book</h2> <i style="">Functional Programming in Kotlin</i> <span>&nbsp;</span>is a serious tutorial for programmers looking to learn FP and apply it to the everyday business of coding. Based on the bestselling <span>&nbsp;</span> <i style="">Functional Programming in Scala</i>, this book guides intermediate Java and Kotlin programmers from basic techniques to advanced topics in a logical, concise, and clear progression. In it, you''ll find concrete examples and exercises that open up the world of functional programming. The book will deliver practical mastery of FP using Kotlin and a valuable perspective on program design that you can apply to other languages.</div> <div style="color: rgb(51,51,51);text-transform: none;text-indent: 0.0px;letter-spacing: normal;font-size: 17.25px;font-style: normal;font-weight: 300;word-spacing: 0.0px;white-space: normal;orphans: 2;widows: 2;background-color: rgb(255,255,255);">&nbsp;</div> <div style="color: rgb(51,51,51);text-transform: none;text-indent: 0.0px;letter-spacing: normal;font-size: 17.25px;font-style: normal;font-weight: 300;word-spacing: 0.0px;white-space: normal;orphans: 2;widows: 2;background-color: rgb(255,255,255);"> <div style="color: rgb(51,51,51);text-transform: none;text-indent: 0.0px;letter-spacing: normal;font-size: 17.25px;font-style: normal;font-weight: 300;word-spacing: 0.0px;white-space: normal;orphans: 2;widows: 2;background-color: rgb(255,255,255);"> <h2 style="color: inherit;text-transform: lowercase;line-height: 1.1;font-size: 27.0px;font-weight: 300;margin-top: 42.0px;margin-bottom: 10.5px;">what''s inside</h2> <ul style="margin-top: 0.0px;margin-bottom: 10.5px;"> <li style="">Functional programming techniques for real-world applications</li> <li style="">Write combinator libraries</li> <li style="">Identify common structures and idioms in functional design</li> <li style="">Code for simplicity, modularity, and fewer bugs</li> </ul> </div> <div style="color: rgb(51,51,51);text-transform: none;text-indent: 0.0px;letter-spacing: normal;font-size: 17.25px;font-style: normal;font-weight: 300;word-spacing: 0.0px;white-space: normal;orphans: 2;widows: 2;background-color: rgb(255,255,255);"> <h2 style="color: inherit;text-transform: lowercase;line-height: 1.1;font-size: 27.0px;font-weight: 300;margin-top: 42.0px;margin-bottom: 10.5px;">about the reader</h2> For intermediate Kotlin and Java developers.
