Features Of Functional Programming

One months ago, I was asked what is functional programming? Although familiar with some of the concept of functional programming, the Little Schemer bought from Canada six months ago also read the previous chapters, that day is not able to answer what is functional programming. Functional programming is a strange field for programmers familiar with procedural programming, and concepts such as closures (closure), continuations (continuation), and currying are a nightmare for programmers with procedural programming. Without u ...

Do we really need so many new programming languages? There is no doubt that the choices currently being made by developers are quite rich. command-type languages, functional languages, object-oriented languages, dynamic languages, compiled language interpretive languages, and scripting languages and so on seem to have completely covered all the tasks we might face, and few professionals today have been able to understand all the languages. However, new languages are still springing up at an alarming rate. Some are designed by students or enthusiasts in the form of personal projects, others from large it vendors. Not even ...

Normally do we need a new programming language? You might think we do not need it. But if you understand the recent trends, your ideas may change. Why did Google use both GO and DART programming languages? Why did IBM, Cray and Red Hat create X10, Chapel and Ceylon respectively? In the future, these 10 programming languages ​​(DART, Ceylon, GO, F # OPA, Fantom, Zimb ...

As we all know, the big data wave is gradually sweeping all corners of the globe. And Hadoop is the source of the Storm's power. There's been a lot of talk about Hadoop, and the interest in using Hadoop to handle large datasets seems to be growing. Today, Microsoft has put Hadoop at the heart of its big data strategy. The reason for Microsoft's move is to fancy the potential of Hadoop, which has become the standard for distributed data processing in large data areas. By integrating Hadoop technology, Microso ...

In January 2014, Aliyun opened up its ODPS service to open beta. In April 2014, all contestants of the Alibaba big data contest will commission and test the algorithm on the ODPS platform. In the same month, ODPS will also open more advanced functions into the open beta. InfoQ Chinese Station recently conducted an interview with Xu Changliang, the technical leader of the ODPS platform, and exchanged such topics as the vision, technology implementation and implementation difficulties of ODPS. InfoQ: Let's talk about the current situation of ODPS. What can this product do? Xu Changliang: ODPS is officially in 2011 ...

MapReduce: Simple data processing on large cluster

What is the most painful learning process? You see a variety of code written by Daniel and next to a few words explanation, but you simply can not understand how the entire code is written down What kind of logic is followed when Daniel writes? Tutorials are placed on one screen, then your own programming tool is placed on another screen, and you switch between the two screens to switch over, wasting time wasting effort. The result? You copy the code of Daniel, put their own project content into, ...
