Functional programmers often point out that one of the big advantages of their approach is declarative programming. They sometimes position declarative vs imperative programming, but it's not quite as simple as that. This is not really about functional vs imperative, these are choices, and tools, that can be useful in most programming languages. So not functional vs OO or imperative vs declarative, but maybe all tools that we can use to do a better job.
In this episode, Dave Farley, author of “Modern Software Engineering” and “Continuous Delivery” explores the role and applicability of declarative and imperative approaches to defining systems.
