[PLUG-ANNOUNCE] pdx.pm - Declarative Problem Solving -- November meeting this Wed.

[Eric Wilhelm]

Hi all,

Feel free to join us at the Portland Perl Mongers this Wednesday.


  Wed. November 14th, 6:53pm at FreeGeek -- 1731 SE 10th Ave.

Topic:  Rapping about Declarative Problem Solving

  A round-table discussion of various techniques (involving DSLs, YAML, 
SQL, Prolog, etc) for solving problems by declaring rules or data.

  Join-in with your questions, comments, and/or case-studies about 
issues like:

  * eliminating large procedural constructs
    (e.g. if, elsif, elsif, else)
  * separation of concerns
  * delegating rules, tests, and data to non-programmers
  * sandboxed/restricted "code"
  * portable procedures

As usual, beer at the LuckyLab after the meeting.
