Overview of this book

Functional programming makes your application faster, improves performance, and increases your productivity. Kotlin supports many of the popular and advanced functional features of functional languages. This book will cover the A-Z of functional programming in Kotlin. This book bridges the language gap for Kotlin developers by showing you how to create and consume functional constructs in Kotlin. We also bridge the domain gap by showing how functional constructs can be applied in business scenarios. We’ll take you through lambdas, pattern matching, immutability, and help you develop a deep understanding of the concepts and practices of functional programming. If you want learn to address problems using Recursion, Koltin has support for it as well. You’ll also learn how to use the funKtionale library to perform currying and lazy programming and more. Finally, you’ll learn functional design patterns and techniques that will make you a better programmer.By the end of the book, you will be more confident in your functional programming skills and will be able to apply them while programming in Kotlin.

Functional Programming and Reactive Programming

So far, we've made good progress over the last eight chapters. You've already learned the concepts of functional programming (FP) and some awesome Kotlin features such as coroutines and delegates, which are not exactly from FP theories (in fact, delegates are from the OOP paradigm), but all of them enable us to get more benefits out of FP.

This short chapter is dedicated to combining other programming principles/paradigms with FP to get the best output from them. Here's a list of the topics that we will cover in this chapter:

  • Combining FP with OOP
  • Functional reactive programming
  • Introduction to RxKotlin

So, let's get started.
