Abstract
Java now supports imperative, object-oriented, and functional styles of programming. Our real enemy when creating applications is not the object-oriented paradigm but the complexity that comes from the imperative style. Functional style is less complex, easier to maintain, and easier to parallelize where appropriate. In this workshop get a practical understanding of functional programming, how to apply it to reduce complexity of your code.
