It's also very powerful, as Haskell demonstrates by throwing away all the conventional programming tools and using only functional programming features. But it doesn't have to be done that way.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFunctional programming is a power tool that you can use in addition to all your usual tools, to whatever extent your current mainstream language supports it. Most languages have at least basic support.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this book we use Python and Java and, as a bonus, Scala. If you prefer another language, there will be minor differences in syntax, but the concepts are the same.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGive functional programming a try. You may be surprised how much a single power tool can help you in your day-to-day programming.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDavid L.
