Richmond .NET tonight features Justin Etheridge on Functional Programming Features in C# 3.0:

Functional programming is a completely different paradigm in programming that focuses on functions and the results of functions rather than on variables and state. C# 3.0 has introduced a few new features that borrow from this world of functional programming and we are going to take a look at them, and show you why this new way of thinking can help improve your code.

Meeting runs from 6:30pm-8:00pm at Markel Plaza in Glen Allen, VA.
