LambdaCon - The Italian conference on Functional Programming

  • Data: 28 marzo 2015 dalle 09:00 alle 18:30

  • Luogo: Dipartimento di Informatica - Scienza e Ingegneria, Viale Risorgimento 2, Bologna

LambdaCon is a conference for people eager to know more about functional programming, combining talks with hands-on sessions to take your skills to the next level

LambdaCon is focused on learning the functional approach, understanding in which scenarios it is better to use FP, discovering what can be done with current languages and technologies and exploring current best practices

Network with other funatics, learn something new, share your knowledge and experiences and have a lot of fun.

 

LambdaCon subjects

Sessions will show how to leverage the power of functional programming languages such as Scala, Haskell, Clojure, Erlang, F#...

Nonetheless the conference aims to instill the functional mindset in attendees so that they can use it as a tool even when programming with an object oriented language

Attendees will learn basic and advanced concepts and how to use FP in their everyday life

  • immutability, higher order functions, currying, continuation-passing, pattern matching, monads
  • DSLs, domain modeling, actor model, machine learning
  • multithreading, non-blocking IO, message passing, message queues, microservices, HTTP-based APIs, web applications, high availability, continuous delivery
