Functional Programming with the Aid of AI

Thu, April 23 at 3:10 PM - 4:10 PM GMT+5:30

Functional programming offers an alternative to the imperative style by reducing complexity and improving maintainability. However, many developers are more familiar with imperative approaches and may find it challenging to adopt a functional style. This session explores how AI can assist in generating functional code, while highlighting the need for careful guidance rather than relying on it blindly. Through an example-driven approach, it examines both the benefits and the limitations of using AI to create functional-style code.

What You Will Learn

  • How AI can assist in generating functional-style code
  • The benefits of functional programming in reducing complexity and improving maintainability
  • The risks and limitations of relying on AI for functional code generation

Who Should Attend

  • Developers
  • Software Engineers
  • Architects
  • Technical Leads
  • Engineering Managers
