(AI Gen) How Functional Programming Made Me A Better C# Developer

Adopting functional programming concepts can improve the quality of C# code. The author, James Garrett, highlights four key concepts – immutability, state management, LINQ, and functional programming in general – and explains how they can simplify complex logic and reduce bugs. The post uses several code examples to demonstrate the benefits of functional programming, including the use of immutable variables, factory methods, and LINQ queries to streamline operations and avoid unnecessary state changes.
