23 Jun 2011 - What is functional programming?

I gave a talk at our Coding By Numbers meetup tonight that attempts to peel away some of the mystery surrounding that question. It was a small audience but they appeared to appreciate it and I hope I was able to show them that many of the benefits of functional programming are easily accessible.

The slides and handouts are available here.
