A Crash Course in Category Theory - Bartosz Milewski

Bartosz Milewski (http://twitter.com/@bartoszmilewski) Programming is math and math is programming. But the kind of math that's useful in programming is not what they teach you in school. In fact it's much more interesting. Category theory seems to be esoteric when presented by mathematicians, because all their examples come from other branches of mathematics. But when you use examples from programming, things suddenly becomes quite obvious. And the reason there is such a close fit between category theory and programming is quite simple: both are built on the principle of composability. Compiling like a boss!
