The Functional Programming Triad of Map, Filter and Fold - a homage to SICP's great intro to the triad

This slide deck is my homage to SICP, the book which first introduced me to the Functional Programming triad of map, filter and fold.

It was during my Computer Science degree that a fellow student gave me a copy of the first edition, not long after the book came out.

I have not yet come across a better introduction to these three functions.

The upcoming slides are closely based on the second edition of the book, a free online copy of which can be found here:
