This talk embarks on journey to glue together some asynchronous calls in a way that is still asynchronous.  After acheiving the concurrent nirvana, one is faced with the issue of testing.   With a few simple functional abstractions, the same code can be used in both a synchronous and asynchronous manner.\n\nIn particular, [this talk](http://jsuereth.com/intro-to-fp) covers:\n\n* Monadic workflows\n* Applicative Functors and joined computation\n* Essence of Iteration\n\nAs seen in the Akka futures library.\n\n## Requirements ##\n\n- sbt(0.11.3)\n- Jekyll\n\n## Acknowledgements ##\n\nThanks to all my FP peeps who drilled this stuff into me until I realized it was useful.\n\nThis presentation uses:\n\n- [hekyll](https://github.com/bmcmurray/hekyll)\n- [impress.js](https://github.com/bartaz/impress.js)\n- [Jekyll](https://github.com/mojombo/jekyll)\n- [Simple Build Tool](https://github.com/harrah/xsbt)\n- [Scala](https://github.com/scala/scala)\n\n## Resources ##\n\n- [Scala in Depth](http://manning.com/suereth)\n- [Scala documentation](http://docs.scala-lang.org)\n- [Akka documentation](http://akka.io/docs/)\n- [Essence of the Iterator Pattern](http://www.cs.ox.ac.uk/jeremy.gibbons/publications/iterator.pdf)\n- [Blog: Essence of Iterator Pattern](http://etorreborre.blogspot.com/2011/06/essence-of-iterator-pattern.html)\n\n\n# LICENSE #\n\nCopyright (c) 2012, Joshua Suereth\nAll rights reserved.\n\n\n## Slides ##\nAll slides are released [Creative Commons Attribution 3.0](http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/us/)\n\n\u003ca rel=\"license\" href=\"http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/us/\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Creative Commons License\" style=\"border-width:0\" src=\"http://i.creativecommons.org/l/by/3.0/us/88x31.png\" /\u003e\u003c/a\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eThis work is licensed under a \u003ca rel=\"license\" href=\"http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/us/\"\u003eCreative Commons Attribution 3.0 United States License\u003c/a\u003e.\n\n## Code ##\nAll code is released under the Apache License v2.0.\n\n\nRedistribution and use in source and binary forms, with or without modification, are permitted provided that the following conditions are met:\n\nRedistributions of source code must retain the above copyright notice, this list of conditions and the following disclaimer.\nRedistributions in binary form must reproduce the above copyright notice, this list of conditions and the following disclaimer in the documentation and/or other materials provided with the distribution.\nTHIS SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED BY THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND CONTRIBUTORS \"AS IS\" AND ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE ARE DISCLAIMED.
