Functional Programming - Simple For Loop For Incrementing Counter

rated 0 times [ 41] [ 1] / answers: 1 / hits: 18381 / 8 Years ago, mon, may 2, 2016, 12:00:00

We dont use for loop in functional programming, instead, we use higher order functions like map, filter, reduce etc. These are fine for iterating through an array.

However, I wonder how do I do a simple counter loop.

let i = 0;

for( i; i < 10; i++) {

  console.log( functional programming is a religion)

};

So, how would one do this in functional programming?

Do not use 'while' or 'for' that is to control flows of Imperative Programming not Functional.

Array(10).fill(functional programming is not a religion)

.map((msg) => {

  console.log(msg);

  return msg;

});
