Functional Programming How-To

http://www.amk.ca/python/writing/functional

Article: “Functional Programming How-To,” discusses Python's features suitable for implementing programs in a functional style, the concepts of functional programming, language features (such as iterators and generators), relevant library modules (such as itertools and functools), data types that support iterators, generator expressions and list comprehensions, generators, built-in functions, small functions, the Lambda statement, the operator module and the functional module.

Functional Programming

http://diveintopython.org/functional_programming/index.html

Sample chapter: “Functional Programming,” from Dive Into Python: Python from Novice to Pro, by Mark Pilgrim (2004). Discusses a Python program that acts as simple regression testing framework, finding the path, running scripts in the current directory, filtering lists, mapping lists, data-centric programming and dynamically importing modules.

Functional Programming

http://www.freenetpages.co.uk/hp/alan.gauld/tutfctnl.htm

Article: “Functional Programming,” by Alan Gauld. Discusses what functional programming is, how Python provides functional programming, map, filter, reduce, lambda, list comprehension and short circuit evaluation.

Functional Programming with Python

http://linuxgazette.net/109/pramode.html

Article: “Functional Programming with Python,” by C. E. Pramode. Discusses what functional programming is, expressing recursion, functions as first class objects, the power of the higher code function, using lambda, closures and lambda fun.
