We've broken up the input of the black box ~cardGenerator~ into it and its child. This is called ~currying~, and it's something we'll touch on in more detail later. We've broken up the input of the black box ~cardGenerator~ into a series of functions with a single input. This is called ~currying~.
There's another way that we could implement the same functionality - "partial function application"; a fancy name for a simple idea: To curry the function `cardGeneratorFor` we:
first created a new closure over the person to provide a function that takes only the type
returned that closure
removed the now unnecessary type argument since that's now curried
and finally changed the function signature to reflect the curried function

``` Here we're not changing anything at all (except the stack), but we've kept the same functionality; this code is "immutable". When we call `build_cards` on a list of people, we're 100% certain we're not gonna change something and get something odd, short of a bug.

return [card] + build_cards(rest_people, card_maker) - Concurrency. When everything is immutable, it's much easier to prevent race conditions and deadlock. If you can avoid a mutex or semaphore here and there, that simplifies things so much. You also know for certain every thread or processor is working on the same data; it couldn't have changed when it was distributed.
``` - No side effects. I can't think about how many times I've spent hours poring through a code base to find where exactly something is changing or what it can effect. This helps verify correctness and makes unit testing a dream.
- I suppose this is more subjective, but it gives you an entirely new view of how computers work. When you work with functions you're directly treating the computer as an automaton or turing machine. There's so much to learn around functional programming, type theory, and it touches almost any given field of mathematics and computer science.

At a high level there are so many benefits to immutability:
+ Concurrency (TODO: go into more detail)
+ Easier to verify correctness.
+ Compiler optimizations.
+ Easy to read and understand.
But there are also downsides: But there are also downsides:
+ Keeping immutability requires more computation (data structures)
+ More difficult to write (huge selling point for Object Oriented Programming; encapsulation) - Keeping immutability requires more computation in many cases (special data structures and copying)
- Typical arrays go out the window in most applications. The cons cell / linked list is much preferred. - You also don't typically have mutable datastructures like hash maps. Instead, you need to reach to balanced trees or tries. It takes a lot of practice but you _can_ always write code just as efficiently in terms of time complexity.
- All things considered, to write and learn, it's difficult. The rabbit hole is as deep as your imagination. I haven't even talked about monads or treating code as data (macros); barely even scratched the surface.
But like all relationships, we need to compromise with our black boxes. Side effects are effectively _unavoidable_ as programmers; when people press the button, they don't want the computation to just exist out there in the computer void. No! They want to see the pop up box, and the value updated on their account. We need to be able to mutate state where the tradeoff of extra compute time is unavoidable like in I/O or a relatively large database.

Writing Code Functionally # Writing Code Functionally
===
Determining if a natural number is even or odd in the best way possible is a problem that's stood unsolved since the dawn of time. We'll use this incredibly difficult task to show how we can refactor some code to use the paradigms we just learned.
The best way to learn is by practicing. So we'll spend some time refactoring some code to be more functional and develop some higher order functions and practice currying.
We'll start with a simple example: a function that takes a list of numbers and returns the sum of the squares of the even numbers.
For millenia humans have thought about how best to find if a number is even. So the first function is the _most efficient_ way to do so; we know 0 is even, and then numbers alternatve between even and odd. We could prove this by induction but it's up to the reader.
Then for our `sumOfEvenSquares` we go through all the numbers `upTo` and add its square if it's even.
To make this functional, we first need to keep `isEven` pure and immutable. We can do this again via recursion; 0 is even, so we do the same alternation between even and odd.
For sumOfEvenSquares, we can make some higher order function to filter out the even numbers, and then map over the list to square them, and then reduce to sum them.
```typescript
const isEvenFn = (n: number) => {
if (n === 0) {
return true;
}
return !isEvenFn(n - 1);
};
const map = (
transform: (x: number, ind: number) => number,
list: number[],
index = 0
) => {
if (list.length === 0) {
return [];
}
const [head, ...tail] = list;
const transformed = transform(head, index);
return [transformed].concat(map(transform, tail, index + 1));
};
const filter = (predicate: (x: number) => boolean, list: number[]) => {
if (list.length === 0) {
return [];
}
const [head, ...tail] = list;
if (predicate(head)) {
return [head].concat(filter(predicate, tail));
}
return filter(predicate, tail);
};
const reduce = (
accumulation: (x: number, acc: number) => number,
accumulator: number,
list: number[]
) => {
if (list.length === 0) {
return accumulator;
}
const [head, ...tail] = list;
const newAccumulator = accumulation(head, accumulator);
return reduce(accumulation, newAccumulator, tail);
};
const sumOfEvenSquaresFn = (upTo: number) => {
const numbersUpTo = map((_, i) => i, Array(upTo + 1).fill(0));
const evens = filter((x) => isEvenFn(x), numbersUpTo);
const evensSquared = map((x) => x * x, evens);
return reduce((x, acc) => x + acc, 0, evensSquared);
};
```
And all our tests pass!
We can also use currying to make our code more readable and easier to use; for example, we can curry our reduce function to implement a sum function.
```typescript
const curriedReduce = (accumulation: (x: number, acc: number) => number) => {
return (accumulator: number) => {
const reduce = (list: number[]) => {
if (list.length === 0) {
return accumulator;
}
const [head, ...tail] = list;
const newAccumulator = accumulation(head, accumulator);
return curriedReduce(accumulation)(newAccumulator)(tail);
};
return reduce;
};
};
const sum = curriedReduce((x: number, acc: number) => x + acc)(0);
...
return sum(evensSquared);
...
```
And our tests pass once again! But one of them is commented... hmm... it's pretty big
And, we fail, getting a "maximum call stack size exceeded" error in our incredibly naive recursive implementation of `filter`, `map`, and `reduce`. Thankfully javascript has these builtin, so we'll use those.
```typescript
const sumOfEvenSquaresFn = (upTo: number) => {
const numbersUpTo = Array(upTo + 1)
.fill(0)
.map((_, i) => i);
return numbersUpTo
.filter((x) => isEvenFn(x))
.map((x) => x * x)
.reduce((x, acc) => x + acc, 0);
};
```
There, much shorter. But, we still get the same error. This time in `isEven` at the recursive call.
Now, we're gonna start getting into the weeds. The reason this is happening is because essentially the code is being transformed into:
```typescript
const isEvenFn = (n: number) => {
if (n === 0) {
return true;
}
const isEven = isEvenFn(n - 1);
return !isEven;
};
```
So everytime we check the number previous, we create a whole new stack frame to evaluate `isEvenFn(n-1)` and return control to the callee. Then we evaluate "!isEven" which requires that stack frame.
The runtime I'm using, Bun, uses JavaScriptCore - which supports Tail Call Optimization (which is, sadly, not in the JS spec). What is TCO? Tail Call Optimizations allows us to write recursive functions that overwrite the same stack frame when the last expression evaluated does not leave control of the function.
To do this, we need to ensure that inside of isEvenFn, the last expression evaluated is always `isEvenFn`, not `!isEven`.
It takes a bit of ingenuity, but to do this, we can use an accumulator _inside an argument_ and change the logic up a bit. Here's what I mean:
```typescript
const isEvenHelper = (curr: number, max: number, previous = false) => {
if (curr === max) {
return !previous;
}
return isEvenHelper(curr + 1, !previous);
};
const isEvenFn = (n: number) => {
return isEvenHelper(0, n);
};
```
And there we go! It's passing. But, it's much much slower than the iterative solution. But from my experimentation, Tail Call Optimization won't help us much here since we spend most of our time doing our isEven check in linear time, and we're constantly doing garbage collection whereas our iterative solution has nothing to clean up.
The keen eyed among you might notice that since we can represent the sum of the first $n$ natural number's squares as (n _ (n + 1) _ (2 \* n + 1)) / 6, then transform each natural number to its nearest even entry by scaling by two, and halve the bounds of the sum. Which is constant time. Yeah. But that's not as fun.

Part Two - A Deeper Dive # Part Two - Marrying Functions
===
The Lambda Calculus # The Lambda Calculus
===
The Lambda calculus, developed by Alonzo Church in the 1930s, is a "formal system in mathematical logic for expressing computation based on function abstraction and application using variable binding and substitution".
Completeness of the Lambda Calculus There are three rules that define the semantics of the Lambda Calculus:
===
Mention how alonzo church actually failed on his first attempt, natural numbers
Writing a Compiler 1. "x": A variable is a character or string representing a parameter, and is a valid lambda term.
=== 2. "(λ x . t)" is an "abstraction" - a function definition, taking as input the bound variable x and returning the lambda term t.
3. (M N) is an "application", applying a lambda term M with a lambda term N.
A Compiler As A Sequence of Transformations There, we're done; the rest is an exercise to the reader. Have a good day everyone! No... I wouldn't be that mean.
===
Continuation Passing Style We can "evaluate" a lambda term by performing three types of reduction:
===
1. α - conversion: Renaming of bound variables to avoid name clashes (out of scope - we're gonna assume user knows not to bind variable names already chosen elsewhere).
2. β - reduction: Application of a function to an argument.
3. η - reduction: Conversion of a function to a point-free form (out of scope).
To perform a β-reduction, we substitute the argument into the body of the function, replacing all instances of the bound variable with the argument.
For example, given the lambda term `(λ x . x) y`, we can do a β-reduction to obtain the value `y` after substituting x. This folllows pretty intuitively, but more formally - we define substitution recursively - given M and N as lambda terms and x,y as variables, as follows:
1. x[x := N] = N
2. y[x := N] = y` if y != x
3. (M N)[x := P] = (M[x := P]) (N[x := P])
4. (λ x . M)[x := N] = λ x . M
5. (λ y . M)[x := N] = λ y . (M[x := N]) if y != x and y is not _free_ in N
A variable is _free_ in a lambda term if it is not bound by a λ abstraction. In other words, a free variable is one that is not a parameter of the function, or in the immediate scope of an abstraction.
# Lambda Calculus as a Computational Model
We encode all computation and values in the lambda calculus as a series of functions and applications. For example, we can encode a natural number n as a function that takes a function f and a value x, and applies f to x n times.
1. `0 = λ f . λ x . x` (no application of f)
2. `1 = λ f . λ x . f x` (one application of f )
3. `2 = λ f . λ x . f (f x)` (two applications of f)
This is called the "Church encoding" of the natural numbers.
We can also define the successor function `succ` as a function that takes a church encoded natural number n, and a function f, and a value x, and performs f on x n times, and then once more.
1. `succ = λ n . λ f . λ x . n f (f x)`
For example, we do an application of `succ` on `0`: `(succ 0) = 1`, and `(succ 1) = 2`.
1. We perform substituion on ,n with the church encoding for 0
2. Substituting g with f has no effect and returns the term (lambda y . y)
3. (lambda y . y) is the identity function.
We're Done! We've constructed 1 from 0. We'll go through the same process to construct 2 from 1.
We can define the boolean values `true` and `false` as functions that take two arguments and return the first and second, respectively.
1. `true = λ x . λ y . x`
2. `false = λ x . λ y . y`
We can then define the logical operators `and`, `or`, and `not` in terms of these boolean values.
1. `and = λ p . λ q . p q false`
2. `or = λ p . λ q . p true q`
3. `not = λ p . p false true`
(a few examples...)
Recursion is also possible in the lambda calculus via the funny-looking thing on the board, which you've probably seen before - the Y combinator. The Y combinator should satisfy the equation `(Y f) = (f (Y f))`, and is defined as follows:
1. `Y = λ f . (λ x . f (x x)) (λ x . f (x x))`
If we let it run by itself, we can see how our recursion works. We can kinda see some formation of a "stack" of sorts.
When we apply the Y combinator to a function, it will apply the function to itself, and then apply the function to itself again, and so on, until the function returns a value.
# Writing a Quick Lambda Calculus Interpreter
I think the best way to learn the lambda calculus is by building an interpreter for it, it's a quick exercise and it's a lot of fun.
When writing a Lambda Calculus interpreter, there are a few decisions to be made:
- [ ] is it the typed or untyped lambda calculus?
- [ ] is the language lazy or strict / eager?
- [ ] call by value or call by name? (call by value - environment, closures)
```
LambdaTerm
= Abstraction
/ Application
/ Variable
Application
= LPAREN _? left:LambdaTerm _? right:LambdaTerm _? RPAREN {
return { left, right };
}
Abstraction
= LPAREN _? LAMBDA _? param:Variable _? DOT _? body:LambdaTerm _? RPAREN {
return { param, body };
}
Variable
= name:([a-z] [A-Z0-9a-z]*) { return { name: name[0] + name[1].join('') }; }
LAMBDA = "λ" / "\"
DOT = "."
LPAREN = "("
RPAREN = ")"
_ = (" " / "\n" / "\t" / "\t\n")+
private substitute(
ast: LambdaTerm,
param: string,
replacement: LambdaTerm
): LambdaTerm {
const node = ast as any;
if (this.isVariable(node)) {
return node.name === param ? replacement : node;
} else if (this.isApplication(node)) {
const left = this.substitute(node.left, param, replacement);
const right = this.substitute(node.right, param, replacement);
return { left, right } as Application;
}
return {
param: node.param,
body: this.substitute(node.body, param, replacement) as Abstraction,
};
}
public fullBetaReduction(ast: LambdaTerm = this.ast): LambdaTerm {
const node = ast as any;
if (this.isApplication(node)) {
const { left, right } = node as Application;
if (this.isAbstraction(left)) {
return this.fullBetaReduction(
this.substitute(left.body, left.param.name, right)
);
}
return {
left: this.fullBetaReduction(left),
right: this.fullBetaReduction(right),
} as Application;
}
if (this.isAbstraction(node)) {
return {
param: node.param,
body: this.fullBetaReduction(node.body),
} as Abstraction;
}
return node;
}
```
There are a lot of bugs in our interpreter; first, there is no alpha conversion, there's a high chance we could have name conflicts within lambda terms. We could use de brujin indexing, but that's outside the scope of this presentation.
# Further
Obviously we've only scratched the surface of the lambda calculus and functional programming; I didn't even mention a lot of things I wanted to get to. So here's a list you can study on your own:
Pattern matching is a fun paradigm and allows one to write much more declarative code.
The lambda calculus is a "universal model of computation", meaning that any computable function can be expressed in the lambda calculus. This is known as the Church-Turing thesis, and is the basis for the theory of computation.
I highly recommend reading the paper "Compilation of Lambda-Calculus into Functional Machine Code". You know how we alluded to the "stack" that the Y combinator produced? This paper goes into how we can utilize that stack to compile lambda calculus into machine code on a stack machine by reversing the order through continuation passing style.
