Ken Scambler provides an accessible, humorous introduction to category theory concepts and their applications in software development.
Why do functional programmers talk about Category Theory so much? What could this horrifyingly abstract branch of maths have to offer the rest of us? Ken will answer these questions and more, explaining the basic terminology and concepts of Category Theory, and how it exposes deep underlying patterns in our software. No prior knowledge required!Why it's here
