What is functional programming?
What is functional programming and how is it different from object oriented programming.
Functional programming is a programming paradigm that emphasizes the use of functions to perform computation and avoids changing state and mutable data. In functional programming, functions are treated as first-class citizens, meaning they can be passed as arguments to other functions, returned as values from functions, and stored in data structures.
Functions are fundamental to code organization; they exist in all higher order programming languages. Generally, functional programming means using functions to the best effect for creating clean and maintainable software. More specifically, functional programming is a set of approaches to coding, usually described as a programming paradigm.
