A functional programming rosetta stone? Sounds challenging and interesting!

Hah. I just meant maybe a blog post that maps the terms I use in JavaScript land with math land. Ie. "it's not a reducer it's a functormonadicfoobar"

Not exactly a blogpost but a nice reading, explains a lot of the functional programming terms and their mathematical analogs.

edit: s/slang/terms

Thanks for the idea. Should make a fun series of posts for my blog assuming there isn't prior art on the subject.
