This git repo is a discussion point for the upcoming meetup on Functional Concepts in Elixir.

We're trying a divide & conquer approach for this meetup with folks snagging a concept and chatting about it for about 10 +/- minutes with the group. If you'd like to help out, clone the repo, make a directory with the concept you'd like to tackle and put your notes/code/whatever in there.

Thanks!

Some of the "Core Concepts" a quick community poll recommended were:

• Functions as first class citizens (may include partial function application & currying here as well?)
• Immutability
• Referential Transparency
• Pattern Matching
• map/reduce/filter
• recursion
• recursive processing of data structures
• Separation of pure functional code from code with side effects

There may be more (and these probably need expansion) so please add/comment!
