The previous chapter concluded the overview of most of the Underscore features. This chapter will explore how Underscore can be used in the context of different programming paradigms and has the following sections:
An overview of the object-oriented programming (OOP) paradigm
Examples of how you can use Underscore in an OOP context
A description of the functional programming (FP) paradigm
Examples of how you can use Underscore in a FP context
The chapter assumes that you are familiar with OOP concepts in general. In this chapter, we will use the programming paradigm interchangeable with the programming style.
The source code for the examples from this chapter is hosted online at https://github.com/popalexandruvasile/underscorejs-examples/tree/master/programming-paradigms, and you can execute the examples using the Cloud9 IDE at the address https://ide.c9.io/alexpop/underscorejs-examples from the programming-paradigms folder.
