Just wanted to create a quick post about my dive into functional programming! I started playing around with the Elixir programming language a week or so back and have been enjoying it so far. I’ve been wanting to learn a functional language for some time and have been trying to apply some functional techniques to my every day work in Angular and C#. I didn’t immediately start with Elixir though. I looked into some languages like Haskell, F#, Elm, and Clojure before settling on Elixir. Although Haskell is described as the purely functional language, I wanted to pursue something that I personally could dive into more quickly.
