Data-Oriented Programming

Eliminate the unavoidable complexity of object-oriented designs. Using the persistent data structures built into most modern programming languages, Data-oriented programming cleanly separates code and data, which simplifies state management and eases concurrency.
In Data-Oriented Programming you will learn how to:

• Separate code from data
• Effectively manage state using immutable data
• Represent data with generic data structures
• Manipulate data with general-purpose functions
• Control concurrency in highly scalable systems
• Specify the shape of your data
• Benefit from polymorphism without objects
• Debug programs without a debugger
• Distinguish data-oriented programming from functional and OO programming

Data-Oriented Programming teaches you to design applications using the data-oriented paradigm. These powerful new ideas are presented through conversations, code snippets, diagrams, and even songs to help you quickly grok whatGÇ Ö s great about DOP. YouGÇ Ö ll learn to write DOP code that can be implemented in languages like JavaScript, Ruby, Python, Clojure and also in traditional OO languages like Java or C#.
