http://blog.tmorris.net/" target="_blank Tony Morris is a developer who has deployed functional programming techniques in industry for over 10 years. Hes also a teacher and key player in Australias increasingly vibrant functional programming community. Tony actively programs in Scala and Haskell so he possesses a well-rounded view of the functional world (from hybrid to pure functional). Here, we talk about functional programming—when to go functional and why—and Tony addresses some of the problems that face developers who want or need to go functional but possess only an imperative way of thinking when it comes to designing and writing software. Its the functional way of thinking that most newcomers to functional programming find most difficult. Of course, theres no conversation about functional programming without talking about monads, so we talk about monadic design (and definition).
