Functions Workshop in Kotlin

Objectives:
1. Understand the fundamental concepts and importance of
functions in Kotlin. 2. Learn how to define and call functions
in Kotlin.
3. Explore different types of functions, including pure
functions, higher-order functions, and recursive
functions.
4. Understand the scope and lifetime of variables within
functions in Kotlin. 5. Practice writing functions with varying
complexities and purposes. 6. Gain hands-on experience
through exercises and real-world examples. Description:
This workshop is designed to provide a comprehensive
understanding of functions in Kotlin, a modern programming
language that is fully interoperable with Java and widely
used for Android development. Functions are essential
building blocks in Kotlin, allowing for code reuse, modularity,
and better organization. The workshop covers the definition,
usage, and types of functions, emphasizing best practices
and real-world applications. Participants will engage in
practical exercises to reinforce their learning and gain
confidence in writing and using functions effectively in Kotlin.
Conceptualization:
1. Definition of Functions: Functions in Kotlin are
reusable blocks of code designed to perform a
specific task. They can take inputs (parameters),
process them, and return an output (result).
2. Importance of Functions:
o Code Reusability: Functions allow you to write a
piece of code once and use it multiple times.
o Modularity: Functions help in breaking down a
complex problem into smaller, manageable
sub-problems.
o Maintainability: Functions make code easier to read,
understand, and maintain.
3. Types of Functions:
o Pure Functions: Functions that always produce the
same output for the same inputs and have no
side effects.
o Higher-Order Functions: Functions that can take
other functions as arguments or return them as
results.
o Recursive Functions: Functions that call
themselves to solve a problem.
4. Scope and Lifetime of Variables:
o Local Scope: Variables declared within a function
are local to that function and cannot be
accessed outside.
o Global Scope: Variables declared outside any
function can be accessed globally.
o Lifetime: The duration for which a variable
exists in memory. Examples:
1. Basic Function Definition and Call:
fun greet(name: String): String {
return "Hello, name!"
}
fun main() {
println(greet("Alice")) // Output:
Hello, Alice! }
2. Pure Function:

fun add(a: Int, b: Int): Int {


return a + b
}

fun main() {
println(add(3, 4)) // Output: 7
}
3. Higher-Order Function:
fun applyFunction(func: (Int) -> Int,
value: Int): Int { return func(value)
}

fun square(x: Int): Int {


return x * x
}

fun main() {
println(applyFunction(::square, 5)) // Output: 25
}
4. Recursive Function:
fun factorial(n: Int): Int {
return if (n == 0) 1 else n * factorial(n - 1)
}

fun main() {
println(factorial(5)) // Output: 120
}
Exercises:
1. Basic Function Exercise:
o Write a function multiply that takes two numbers as
arguments and returns their product.
2. Pure Function Exercise:
o Write a pure function isEven that takes a number
and returns true if it is even, and false otherwise.
3. Higher-Order Function Exercise:
o Write a higher-order function applyTwice that takes
a function and a value, and applies the function to
the value twice.
4. Recursive Function Exercise:
o Write a recursive function fibonacci that returns
the nth Fibonacci number.
Conclusion:
By the conclusion of this workshop, participants will have a
comprehensive grasp of functions and their applications in
Kotlin. They will possess the expertise to develop
streamlined, effective, and reusable code through the use of
functions. The hands-on exercises will provide invaluable
practical experience, reinforcing the theoretical concepts
covered in the workshop.

Challenge:
Use function in Kotlin
In order to generate the aqueduct invoice, it is necessary
to comply with the following conditions:
1. The current reading is to be compared with the
previous reading in order to ascertain the level of
consumption.
2. Subsidy: In accordance with the stipulations of stratum 1
and 3, the subsidy is 50% of the value of the consumption
multiplied by the value of the metro cubic, provided that the
consumption is less than 20 cubic meters. In the event that
the consumption is between 21 and 30 cubic meters, the
subsidy will be 25%. However, if the consumption is greater
than It should be noted that discounts are not applicable to
cubic meters with a volume of 31 or above. Furthermore,
subsidies are not available for stratum 4. For stratum 5 and 6,
an additional charge is levied according to the consumption
in order to cover the subsidy for strata 1, 2, and 3. This
consists of a charge of 25% for consumption below 25 cubic
meters. Meters and 50% if it is greater than 25.
3. The value of the cubic meter is calculated as follows:
If consumption exceeds 20 cubic meters, an additional
25% is charged for each additional cubic meter.
