The aim of this study is to provide evidence of the relevance of functional programming for software engineering, both from a research and from a practical point of view. The software development process is studied and a brief introduction to functional programming and languages is provided. Functional programming tends to promote locality which makes it possible to reason about a component of a program, independent of the rest of the program. The significance of the functional approach for formal program manipulation is illustrated by two important techniques, abstract interpretation and program transformation. Abstract interpretation is applied to the compilation of ... Read more
