Where in object-oriented programming you model your programs by describing which states an object can be in and how methods will reveal or modify that state, in functional programming you model programs by describing how functions translate input data to output data. Functions themselves are considered to be data you can manipulate and much of the strength of functional programming comes from manipulating functions; that is, building more complex functions by combining simpler functions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat You'll Learn\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWrite functions in R 4, including infix operators and replacement functions \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCreate higher order functions\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePass functions to other functions and start using functions as data you can manipulate\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse Filer, Map and Reduce functions to express the intent behind code clearly and safely\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuild new functions from existing functions without necessarily writing any new functions, using point-free programming\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCreate functions that carry data along with them\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cb\u003eWho This Book Is For\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eThose with at least some experience with programming in R.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaster functions and discover how to write functional programs in R.
