Functional pearls are elegant, instructive examples of functional programming. They are supposed to be fun, and they teach important programming techniques and fundamental design principles. They traditionally appear in The Journal of Functional Programming and and at ICFP and affiliated workshops.

History

The history of functional pearls is covered by:

There have been many functional pearls in JFP and and some others at ICFP and the Haskell Workshop. There is also a collection of them in The Fun of Programming.

The pearls tend to concentrate on:

  • Examples of program calculation and proof
  • Neat presentations of new or old data structures
  • Interesting applications and techniques

Some advice on writing pearls for JFP is available in this editorial.
