A workshop on monads with C++14

Meetup C/C++ de Madrid, January 15h 2015

During the workshop we will explore the basics of monadic theory in the context of C++14. Format is based on a bunch of 5-min exercises that the attendants are expected to complete along the way, with solutions provided and commented publicly.

Prerequisites

• You are expected to be reasonably fluent with some post-2003 C++ stuff
  • auto
  • std::function, lambda functions, generic lambda functions
  • Function return type deduction, trailing return type declaration
  • Template template parameters (this is C++03, anyway)
  • decltype, std::declval
• You are encouraged to pre-read about functional programming and monads
  • For instance, go to https://github.com/joaquintides/usingstdcpp2014 (in Spanish)
• You are required to bring a computer with
• Internet access (hopefully provided by host)
• A C++14 compiler such as GCC 4.9 (-std=c++1y) with a recent Boost distro
• Alternatively, you can use an online environment such as Coliru
