I've been programming since the days of punch cards. Of the hundreds of instructors I've read or watched in all that time, this guy is the clearest. He has a brilliant talent for making the intimidating and abstract seem understandable and practical. I highly recommend his book, and all his other talks. If you need to get a handle on typed functional programming for real-world problem domains, there is no better guide. In particular, if you want to learn Haskell and aren't a mathematician, consider starting with Wlaschin and F#. You'll have much more chance of succeeding if you have already grasped the fundamental concepts from an exceptional teacher like Scott while using a less intimidating language.
Yep. While. I certainly fall short of your legacy, being only a decade into "this mess we're all in," I can confirm that it's not just y'all old foggies that find Scott a delightful person and clear communicator.
When Scott mention how to make FizzBuzz general solution at 48:57 before started talking about Monad and Bind. I'm kinda confuse. Is that mean I can do something like this with Bind? Original implementation : let FizzBuzz n = n |> carbonate | 5 "FizzBuzz" |> ifUncarbonateDo (carbonate 3 "FizzBuzz") |> ifUncarbonateDo (carbonate 5 "FizzBuzz") |> carbonateRemaining To Bind implementation : let FizzBuzz n = n |> carbonate | 5 "FizzBuzz" |> Bind (carbonate 3 "FizzBuzz") |> Bind carbonate 5 "FizzBuzz") |> carbonateRemaining
Uhm, it's not quite the same, but I hope in the 2 years since this comment, you've spotted Gabriel Lebec's talk at ua-cam.com/video/3VQ382QG-y4/v-deo.html, "a flock of functions: lambda calculus in javascript". He also is quite patient, thorough, but not thorough enough to get stuck in the weeds.
I love his talks, but he's GOT to stop nervously clearing his throat, especially at the start! After giving tons of talks, he ought to have practiced away the habit by now.

Wow. This is probably the single best summary of functional programming that I've seen so far. Thank you.
Hai sir, pls you do videos on refactoring of object oriented soft..
Your design patterns are very good tutorials
Christopher Okhravi your design patterns channel saved my life. You will forever remain my legend
Woah this guys is amazingly clear
Praise Scott Wlaschin. I finally get monads
15:50 they say Excel is a functional programming language… I wish it had a pipe syntax. So many nested functions!
I think there are more things you should forget like exceptions and null pointers. Especially null pointers

Is that mean I can do something like this with Bind?
Original implementation :
let FizzBuzz n =
n
|> carbonate | 5 "FizzBuzz"
|> ifUncarbonateDo (carbonate 3 "FizzBuzz")
|> ifUncarbonateDo (carbonate 5 "FizzBuzz")
|> carbonateRemaining
To Bind implementation :
let FizzBuzz n =
n
|> carbonate | 5 "FizzBuzz"
|> Bind (carbonate 3 "FizzBuzz")
|> Bind carbonate 5 "FizzBuzz")
|> carbonateRemaining
is there a javascript equivalent of this guy

07:46 bless you mate
the public API doesn't talk about bananas
NICE
Give that man a cough drop good lord

i barely even noticed that. the person coughing in the audience loud and consistently drove me insane tho
didn’t see/hear this happen once.
