Summary

What you’ll be able to do

  • Demonstrate a strong understanding of functions, including core principles of functional programming.

  • Apply classic functional programming techniques (e.g., map, fold, filter) to effectively solve computational problems.

  • Analyze code statically to determine its behavior, output, and broader implications without executing it.

  • Apply structured natural language programming techniques when working with AI coding assistants.

  • Design, develop, and manage tools that support AI-assisted programming workflows.

  • Create and operate a dynamic development environment for effective interaction with generative AI models.
