    22: Structuring Data
    This time we discuss the way data tends to be structured in functional languages and some of the similarities with databases and REST.

    21: Type Parameters
    You may have seen generics in C#, Java, or Swift but there are a lot of very useful patterns using generics that rarely get used in an OO context. In this episode, we explore Type Parameters (aka generics) from a functional perspective and how using them can improve the structure of your applications.

    20: Laziness
    Lazy evaluation is not normally something you hear programmers discussing but there is a lot of power available if you know how to use it. This episode we'll examine the differences between lazy and strict evaluation and look at use cases for laziness.
