Check the functional-perl website for properly formatted versions of these documents.

Examples

Some examples showing the possibilities using functional-perl.

  • fibs and primes show translations of Haskell programs.

  • gen-csv and csv_to_xml (and the shorter variant csv_to_xml_short) show how to stream number series into and from CSV files and into XML.

  • diff_to_html hows how to generate (X)HTML.

  • skip shows how to implement a sliding window (look-ahead) as a pure function (that can easily be tested) and then uses it for I/O

  • pdf-to-html is a practical, small and rather clean example reading directories and generating HTML. It also shows how to wrap non-functional Perl builtins (regex matching) in pure functions.

These are really just test suites, but perhaps still instructive:

  • dbi shows/tests usage of FP::DBI

  • predicates shows/tests FP::Predicates

Copy template to create your own script.

  • Htmlgen, the script that generates this website.

  • For a real program using these modules, see ml2json, although it still bundles a much older version of the functional-perl libraries (todo: update to use the current functional-perl instead)
