Introduction to Functional Programming in Python

Curious about functional programming and how it fits into the Python world? Join us for an engaging session where Nikolai will introduce you to the power and elegance of functional programming concepts! During this meetup, we will dive a little bit into the concept of functional programming and discuss how this approach impacts software development and what advantages it offers.

Agenda:

• What is functional programming? Understand the philosophy behind this paradigm.
• Key concepts: Explore the building blocks like pure functions, immutability, higher-order functions, and lazy evaluation.
• Functional patterns: Learn how to apply functional techniques to write cleaner, more efficient code.
• Comparison with other paradigms: Discover how functional programming differs from object-oriented and procedural styles.
• Python libraries: Uncover libraries and tools that make functional programming in Python a breeze.

Whether you're a Python enthusiast looking to expand your skill set or someone curious about functional programming in general, this meetup is designed for developers of all levels. Expect a mix of theory, practical examples, and plenty of opportunities to ask questions.
