At 12 mins. It is currying and currying is not quite the same as partial application. Currying is where multi-argument functions are instead represented as a sequence of single argument functions that return a new single argument function until all arguments are provided, then the last one returns a value. So f(a,b): -> c would instead be f(a) -> (f(b) -> c).

@DavidAguileraMoncusi
@DavidAguileraMoncusi 5 месяцев назад
@@Tigregalis Currying (one argument at a time) allows you to partially apply a function, which makes things a little bit easier (especially when the language supports them). For example, the function "userIdEquals" from the video, if curried, it'd be called as "userIdEquals(userId)(receipt)". This means we can then use this function partially applied as: "receipts.filter(userIdEquals(userId))", which saves as the trouble of creating an intermediate function: "receipts.filter((r)=>userIdEquals(userId,r))". In languages like JS, curried functions can be cumbersome, because each arguments has to be wrapped in parentheses. But languages like Haskell don't have this trouble: you can call the function with as many arguments as you want -- give them all and you'll get the result; provide the first few, and you'll get a partially applied function that's waiting for the rest. Hope this helps!

Currying is not partial application) It is splitting function of multiple arguments into sequence of functions of 1 argument.

More languages than just haskell (and other 'pure' functional languages) should implement tail recursion optimization. That is a strategy that does not create a stack item for a function call when it is the last thing in the function, and is a recursive call to itself. Java for instance does not do that and the call stack for the recursion becomes too large after a few thousand. So implementing a loop the recursive way leads to trouble.

There is state, it's just explicitly passed around instead of hidden by class variables and global mutables. I wrote this on the original, but the issue with using functional techniques in a language like JavaScript is that A) The language doesn't have tail-call optimization and therefore recursion blows up the call stack B) Sometimes, functional languages are able to support loop fusion where, in the pipeline example, all the steps happen in a single loop instead of iterating multiple times.

fwiw re: B) - you can easily build transducers in JS (or use a library), which allows you to write declarative transformations but avoid a bunch of additional loops/instances. To me one of thing I hate about FP with JS is that there isn't currying by default (again, you can supplement with libs), which makes the whole thing feel super un-ergonomic. It makes composition harder and less intuitive, which makes small, pure functions feel less valuable. FP techniques synergize in a really satisfying way, so when you have to do all this extra leg work to enact them, of course it feels like going all in on FP is a pain.

No. Pure functional programming languages like "clean programming language" for example model the whole universe with no state changes (including the computer memory) - then how you run interactive programs is that both your functional program can create a new universe - then the user as a function also can create a new universe from that - then functions run over it again. You need no state this is just recursion with a completely new universe being born all the times haha. Then haskell has the other approach with monads - but I find the "Clean" approach to be theoretically cleaner indeed. Fun-fact: Clean and Haskell are nearly fully compatibly even to the syntax level and you could not tell which code is from which - despite the therory and inner workings being so different...

@wolfgangrohringer820
@wolfgangrohringer820 5 месяцев назад
I am doing a lot of DSP and data processing, and I found myself drawn to the style of creating some kind of "pipeline" since it makes it really easy to understand on a high level what kind of steps a given analysis is going through (much more so than, say, a nested loop with all the interesting stuff going on in the innermost loop). Since in Rust / C++, I find myself falling back to good old procedural idioms quite often out of habit, I started to use some F# for smaller scripts and recently Advent of Code, forcing myself to embrace the functional style. On the one hand, the code turns out to be quite readable, composing functions feels good, and I have less issues bikeshedding how to organize code compared to an object oriented approach, where there are always multiple ways to split up functionality into different classes, and usually the first choice turns out to be flawed some time down the road. On the other hand, I find that the FP style has more "surface area" to learn (knowing as many algorithms / operations available for a given type of container is critical), I find it hard to reason about the performance of certain steps (compared to a procedural style where working with contiguous memory and avoiding copies already gets you quite far, and it's usually obvious when copies happen), and, most critically, the debugger seems really useless. So I'm torn. It seems a bit like sugar, some FP style in some places (mainly high-level "business logic"?) is awesome, but in the more involved interna of a codebase, I find that keeping things procedural may actually be better to stay on top of what's going on, at least based on the debugging experience I had so far. Ofc it might just be a skill issue at this point.

I think people missed his point. He was not advocating for architecture-wide implementation of functional programming. It's simply a tool to be used. At my company we have a mix in our codebase. We like the Functional Core/Imperative shell pattern. Sometimes. If it gets in the way, we don't use it. But when it doesn't get in the way it's really nice because you can write these complicated business functions that take input and produce output. They don't call into the database or anything else for that matter. They don't have state. This makes them very easy to unit test because you don't have to do any kind of mocking. To test it, you just call it with different inputs and test the outputs.

In Haskell, It’s not just because it’s pretty or because it’s elegant or because it’s easier to reason about once you understand it, it’s useful for making increasingly complex programs require less code to write (even under the hood) through the use of generalizations of functions on types and type classes. It’s the low cost or cost free abstractions that allow you to have automatic optimizations that the compiler can now prove using the type system that it wouldn’t be able to make without it. In some cases this even allows optimizations you wouldn’t be able to get writing well written C unless you used inline assembly. It literally lets you write more performant programs using less total code asymptotically as you scale. And imo it’s more pleasant to write. And for the record, I love C and assembly. Calling C and assembly in Haskell when generalizations don’t yet exist to get you comparable performance for that specific function is practically standard practice for a Haskell dev when performance matters.

11:46 Yeah, it is currying, basically if you have a function that does the sum between 2 numbers, gets a number as input, that's the function that does the sum of x + 5 (assuming you passed 5 as first argument) and you specialize the function x + y with y = 5. If you pass both of them in this way (x)(y), you are actually changing both of the x and y. TECHNICALLY what he did it's called closure in python world, but it's the same principle of currying

The problem with FP is that computers aren't functional, they're imperative. You will _ALWAYS_ be able to write more optimized code imperatively, because the way that FP gets converted to imperative machine code is a generic approach. Domain specific knowledge that you have about your program will always allow you to write better code. And there really is no argument about speed of writing, since they will both be about the same amount of time to write.

Your closing comment made me cry a little bit inside. Concurrency in Rust is hard. It took me a couple months to get used to the borrow checker when learning. Now I have a process that I’m trying to speed up with the various concurrency tricks, but nothing actually works. Everything compiles and runs and gives correct results, but everything with concurrency makes things 5 to 50 times slower. Rayon, channels, etc. nothing works. I feel like I did back before I was able to think of the borrow checker as something to work with instead of something to fight with. This is one thing that the rust book actually makes look easy, but that implementing in a real world problem gets hard.

The higher-order function/currying always gives me a lot of trouble. I can't seem to wrap my mind around it. I also can't justify not using loops at all. I'm reinventing the wheel. In the end, I'm left coding some abomination of functional/non-functional. Where I use functions to handle everything but still use loops & conditions to make the program operate. If anybody has some good resources or recommendations let me know!
@benniecopeland7388
@benniecopeland7388 5 месяцев назад
A higher-order function is simply a function that takes another function as input. The map function is a good example of this type. Say for example, you have a function that takes a number and doubles it, and you have a list of numbers you want to run through the function. Map takes both that function and the list and returns you a new list of the doubled values. Currying is taking a function with two or more parameters, and converting it to a nested collection of single parameter functions. This , in that you can provide each parameter one at a time. In JavaScript it would look like this: const calcTax = (taxRate, quantity, price) => (price * quantity) * (taxRate / 100); const r = calcTax(7.5, 5, 3); // forced to call it with all three values const curriedCalcTax = (taxRate) => (quantity) => (price) => (price * quantity) * (taxRate / 100); const r2 = curriedCalcTax(7.5)(5)(3); // forced to call three functions each with a single value const salesTax7point5 = curriedCalcTax(7.5); // partially apply the 7.5 percent sales tax to create a new function with the value baked in const r3 = salesTax7point5(5)(3); const salesTax7point5quantity5 = salesTax7point5(5); // partially apply the quantity const r4 = salesTax7point5quantity5(3); // left with a single parameter function Functional languages do this currying for you automatically, and it is useful to bake in values like connection strings, or adapting the shape of your function to match a higher-order function's requirement. Loops themselves are not necessarily bad or "non-functional" in my opinion. It's about controlling side effects. You can have a loop with a mutable counter inside the boundaries of a function, and that function still be "pure" because it only relies on the inputs and any mutable state is kept within the boundaries of that function call. There is no pure side effect free program. It can't exist. Everything needs a way of getting input, providing output, storing and retrieving data, etc. But FP prefers to limit the places that these "impure" actions take place to the start and end points of a calculation. Mark Seemann calls this the "impureim sandwich".

You could consider "bind" to be syntactic sugar (or salt in this case) for currying. Essentially you are just adding the scope of the parent function and using it within the child function. This would be exactly the same result as simply just calling the child function inside of the parent function. Using bind is also less readable and I would argue introduces the same state-like problems you are trying to avoid. That being the functions being bound together is a state in itself but that state can be set up outside the scope of the function meaning there are cases where your function could fail and you'd have no idea just by looking at the function itself, rather you'd have to probe the context of the state around the function. At that point you might as well just use the state and keep the readability. Save you typing bind constantly too 😂
