Pure JavaScript
Are you comfortable passing functions around, returning them from other
functions, and generally enjoy the pleasures of higher-order functions?
In this talk, we will be implementing ideas from functional programming
in JavaScript. I will show you how you can significantly up your game by
leaving loops behind and embracing functions as your primary unit of
abstraction.
Monday (November 18th) - 10:00 - 10:45 on Agile / PC
