Overview of this book

Functional programming makes your application faster, improves performance, and increases your productivity. C# code is written at a higher level of abstraction, so that code will be closer to business requirements, abstracting away many low-level implementation details. This book bridges the language gap for C# developers by showing you how to create and consume functional constructs in C#. We also bridge the domain gap by showing how functional constructs can be applied in business scenarios. We’ll take you through lambda expressions and extension methods, and help you develop a deep understanding of the concepts and practices of LINQ and recursion in C#. By the end of the book, you will be able to write code using the best approach and will be able to perform unit testing in functional programming, changing how you write your applications and revolutionizing your projects.

Leveraging the interface, collection, and object


Not only can classes and types apply an extension method, but interfaces, collections, and any other objects can be functionally extended using an extension method as well. We are going to discuss this in the upcoming sections.

Extending the interface

We can extend the method in an interface in the same way we extend the method in a class or type. We still need the public static class and the public static method. By extending the interface abilities, we can use the extension method just after we create it without the need to create the implementation inside the class that we inherit from the interface, since the implementation is done when we declare the extension method. Let's take a look at the following DataItem class, which we can find in the ExtendingInterface.csproj project:

namespace ExtendingInterface 
{ 
  public class DataItem 
  { 
    public string Name { get; set; } 
    public string Gender { get; set;...
