Aspect-Oriented programming has captivated my imagination for years. C#, however, does not support AOP. Even conceptually realizing benefits of the paradigm proved difficult. Then, I experienced functional composition.
Service-Oriented Programming is my primary programming paradigm. It divides the software into self-contained “services” or groups of functionality. Services also apply in functional programming, rather, service-like behavior is enforced all the way to the foundational functional concepts.
Language is strongly related to the kinds of thoughts we have. Language shapes to favor what it’s users most want to describe. This post introduces a series about how I internalized the value of different programming languages. Specifically, my transition to functional-style thinking. I’ll be diving into concrete design problems and how FP trivialized my long-standing struggle with them.
