Functional Programming with Origami

Welcome to the course Functional Programming with Origami,

I took my inspiration for creating this course by remembering how one learns as a child. Whether it was learning to count on your fingers or the realization of symmetry, one comes to by building things with toy blocks.

The origami examples in this course are designed to help you understand what is being demonstrated via the code examples both visually and tactilely.

There are many code examples in this course written in C#, with each module s examples building on the previous.

The core of this course centers around the types List, Option, and Either, you ll learn what these types model and how they add an effect to other types.

The functions Return, Map and Bind are demonstrated in numerous code examples, and you ll see how they can be composed and used together.

You ll learn the difference between Total and Partial Functions and how to turn Partial Functions into Total Functions .

At the crescendo of this course, the patterns Functor and Monad are unveiled and explained in simple and easy to understand terms.

Toward the end of the course, you ll be given links to several resources to help you continue your functional programming journey.
