I’ve been reading Tomas Petricek and John Skeet’s Functional Programming for the Real World. I’m hoping I can, as Steve McConnel says, program into1 my C# projects some elements of functional problem solving. As I was working to grok the beginning portions of the book I thought I’d rewrite FizzBuzz since I’ve aleady posted a few versions of a solution. Here is my solution:

Func<int, int[], bool> isMultiple = (n, n2) => n2.Any(m => n % m == 0);
Func<int, int, string, string> fb = (n, n2, s) => (n % n2 == 0) ? s : String.Empty;


foreach(var i in Enumerable
.Range(1, 100)
.Select(n =>(isMultiple(n, new int[]{3,5}))
?fb(n, 3, "Fizz") + fb(n, 5, "Buzz")
:fb(n, n, n.ToString())
)Console.WriteLine(i);


Another version, using ForEach on a List<T>:



Func<int, int[], bool> isMultiple = (n, n2) => n2.Any(m => n % m == 0);
Func<int, int, string, string> fb = (n, n2, s) => (n % n2 == 0) ? s : String.Empty;

Enumerable
.Range(1, 100)
.Select(n => (isMultiple(n, new int[] { 3, 5 }))
? fb(n, 3, "Fizz") + fb(n, 5, "Buzz")
: fb(n, n, n.ToString()))
.ToList()
.ForEach(num => Console.WriteLine(num));


I'm just starting to wade into using F# but I'm hoping to start building my proficiency the further I get into the book

The best programmers think of what they want to do, and then they assess how to accomplish their objectives with the programming tools at their disposal." – Steve McConnell, Code Complete 2nd Edition
