Bridging the Gap between Event-Based Programming and Functional Programming
Abstract: Functional programming and event-based programming are considered two widely used paradigms in software development. Moreover, each of them contains its strengths and weaknesses. Based on the information, the article will explore the convergence of these two paradigms in detail by highlighting their commonalities and providing information on how they can complement each other to create a more robust and maintainable software system. Furthermore, through leveraging functional concepts like pure functions, immutability, and higher-order functions, the developers can easily bridge the gap between functional and event-based programming which will lead towards more efficient and reliable software solutions. Also, the article will discuss the key challenges and provide a comprehensive practical example to show the benefits of this synergy in detail.
Keywords: Functional programming, Event-Based Programming, Pure Functions, Immutability, and Convergence
