One of the nice things about the Python programming language is it's at least three programming

paradigms in one. There's the procedural style, the object-oriented style, and the functional

style of programming. This week, you'll meet Evan Hubinger, who is taking Python's functional

programming style and turning it to 11. We are talking about coconut, a full functional programming

language that is a proper superset of Python itself. This is Talk Python. Episode 117 recorded May 22nd,

2017.

Developers, developers, developers, developers, development. I'm a developer in many senses of the word,

because I make these applications,

but I also use these verbs to make this music.

I constructed line by line, just like when I'm coding another software design.

In both cases, it's about design patterns.

Anyone can get the job done.

It's the execution that matters.

I have many interests.

Sometimes it can flage. Welcome to Talk Python to Me, a weekly podcast on Python, the language, the libraries, the ecosystem, and the personalities.

This is your host, Michael Kennedy. Follow me on Twitter where I'm at M. Kennedy.

Keep up with the show and listen to past episodes at TalkPython.ffm and follow the show on Twitter via at talk

python. This episode is brought to you by Rollbar and Hired. Think them both for supporting the show.

Check them out at Rollbar and at Hired underscore HQ on Twitter and tell them thank you.

Before we jump into the main part of the show, I want to let you know that we're adding a couple of new courses over at Talk Python training.

Within the next few weeks, we'll be releasing restful HTTP services with Pyramid and Python, including a SQL Alchemy data-driven backend, and another course, MongoDB for Python developers.

If you're interested in either of these, be sure to create a free account over at training.compython.
