[名家名著] 33 無瑕的程式碼 函數式設計篇：原則、模式與實踐 Functional Design: Principles, Patterns, and Practices ❝乍看之下，物件導向和函數式這兩種範式似乎互不相容，一個強調資料抽象與封裝狀態，另一個則倡導不可變與純函數。事實上，即便兩者出發點不同，卻能在合適的脈絡下融為一體，互相補足，最終協助我們打造更強韌、更具表達力的軟體系統。對一位想要同時掌握物件導向與函數式思維的工程師來說，如何在日常工作中權衡並結合這兩種做法，正是本書所提出的關鍵挑戰與寶貴建議。❞ ────微軟最有價值專家(Microsoft MVP)｜本書譯者　張立顗(Poy Chang) ❝Uncle Bob精心展示了函數式設計，這是當今軟體開發中極為流行且高效的設計方式。透過深入的原則和實踐案例，本書不僅適合軟體開發者，也對任何追求卓越程式品質的專業人士都具有極高的實用價值。Uncle Bob的洞見和清晰的寫作風格使這本書成為了一本不可多得的學習資源。❞ ────博碩文化總編輯 & CEO CSM　陳錦輝(Simon) 一本精通函數式程式設計的實用指南，寫出更優雅、更整潔的程式碼！ 在本書中，世界級軟體開發傳奇大師、暢銷書《Clean Code》的作者Robert C. Martin(Uncle Bob)將深入解說，為何要使用函數式程式設計（functional programming），以及如何運用函數式設計來建置更符合實際需求的系統。Uncle Bob將比較傳統的物件導向程式設計(如Java)與函數式語言(如Clojure)所採用的結構，並指出各自的最佳應用場景。他將展示如何在不同的情境下，明智地選擇合適且合理的做法，來建置更優秀、更優雅的系統。 Uncle Bob不僅手法務實，他還將理論簡化，把重點放在「實戰」與「解決問題」的具體做法。透過簡單易懂的範例，開發者將發現，容易學習且語意豐富的Clojure語言，如何幫助他們提升程式碼的整潔度、品質、開發紀律與效率。Uncle Bob還將從函數式程式設計的角度，深入探討廣為人知的SOLID原則與「四人幫」設計模式，解釋這些模式對於函數式程式設計師的價值，並指導讀者如何利用它們來實現更卓越的成果。 【內容亮點】 ・理解函數式程式設計的基本概念：不可變性、持久性資料、遞迴、迭代、延遲
