Course objectives (in Czech)
Kurs seznamuje posluchače s funkcionálním programovacím paradigmatem. Prostředí vynucující čistý zápis programů bez vedlejších efektů má mimo jiné přivést studenty k návykům, jež využijí při pozdější tvorbě větších programových celků i v imperativních jazycích. Přednáška je doplněna řadou příkladů, které si lze prakticky vyzkoušet na nepovinných cvičeních.
Syllabus
  • Basic notions: term, value, evaluation step.
  • Lambda abstraction.
  • Higher-order functions, partial application, currying.
  • Simple types: ground types and type constructors, product types.
  • Polymorfic types, typing.
  • User defined type constructors, sum types, recursive types; definitions by patterns.
  • List constructors, list enumeration and list comprehension.
  • Evaluation order, strict vs. lazy reduction.
  • Infinite data structures.
  • Recursive functions, operations on lists and trees, time complexity.
