AI overview
Functional programming is a style of computer programming that organizes code around functions—reusable blocks of instructions that take inputs and produce outputs—rather than around objects that store data and change state. This approach can make programs easier to understand, test, and maintain because functions behave predictably and don't rely on hidden changes happening elsewhere in the code.
