As a strong proponent of functional languages, I would have to agree these are some good criticisms. FP solves many problems it cannot solve is code readability. Readability will always be a problem no matter what paradigm you work in. This is why I both appreciated and disliked this article. It brings up many valid points about how FP can be (and is often) written illegibly. But on the flip side, don't throw the baby out with the bath water. Just make the functional code more readable. > Write stupid code Also really agree with this. As engineers our job is not just to write something that works, it's to write something that can also be read and understood by others. This is why simple solutions to problems are praised over complex solutions. |
