Reactive Programming for .NET Developers

Overview of this book

Reactive programming is an innovative programming paradigm focused on time-based problem solving. It makes your programs better-performing, easier to scale, and more reliable. Want to create fast-running applications to handle complex logics and huge datasets for financial and big-data challenges? Then you have picked up the right book! Starting with the principles of reactive programming and unveiling the power of the pull-programming world, this book is your one-stop solution to get a deep practical understanding of reactive programming techniques. You will gradually learn all about reactive extensions, programming, testing, and debugging observable sequence, and integrating events from CLR data-at-rest or events. Finally, you will dive into advanced techniques such as manipulating time in data-flow, customizing operators and providers, and exploring functional reactive programming. By the end of the book, you'll know how to apply reactive programming to solve complex problems and build efficient programs with reactive user interfaces.

Preface

Mathematical operators


Mathematical operators are all the operators that deal with mathematics aggregations. All such operators work on aggregated values.

Min/Max/Avg/Sum/Count

All these operators create a new sequence that will flow a single message containing the minimum, maximum, averaged, sum, or count value ever entered in the operator from the source sequence. The new sequence will flow out its message only when the source sequence is complete.

Here is an example:

var s16 = new Subject<double>(); 
var min = s16.Min(); //register for finding the min 
var max = s16.Max(); //register for finding the max 
var avg = s16.Average(); //register for finding the average 
var sum = s16.Sum(); //register for finding the count 
var count = s16.Count(); //register for finding the sum 
 
min.Subscribe(x => Console.WriteLine("min: {0}", x)); 
max.Subscribe(x => Console.WriteLine("max: {0}", x)); 
avg.Subscribe(x => Console.WriteLine("avg: {0...
