Advanced Programming Language Concepts (CT006-3-3) Purity and Side Effects

Tutorial -3
Question:
1. Define the pure function/method. Compare it to impure function/method.

2. Appraise the concept of “side effects”. Explain TWO (2) side effects in any programming
language with code examples.

3. Given the Java code as follows. Explain the effect of code design.
public class Demo {

public static void main(String[] args) {

//demo
Circle c1 = new Circle();
c1.setRadius( 10 );
System.out.println( "=== Area, Circumference, Diameter ===" );
c1.area();
System.out.println( "Area: " + c1.area);
c1.circumference();
System.out.println( "Circumference: " + c1.circumference);
c1.diameter();
System.out.println( "Diameter: " + c1.diameter);

}
class Circle{

int radius;
double area;
double circumference;
double diameter;

//getter
public void setRadius(int radius) {
this.radius = radius;
}

public void area() {


if( radius > 0 ) {
this.area = Math.PI * Math.pow(radius, 2);
}
}

public void circumference() {


if( radius > 0 ) {
this.circumference = 2 * Math.PI * radius;
}
}

public void diameter() {


if( radius > 0 ) {
this.diameter = 2 * radius;
}
}

4. Justify the Math.random() from the perspective of functional programming paradigm.

5. Improve this code snippet in Java/Javascript.

let PI = 3.14;
const calculateArea = (radius) => radius * radius * PI;
console.log( calculateArea(10) );

6. Discuss in group the impact of purity in computer programming.

Given an array list as follows. Write a Javascript statement for the following requirements.
[12,34,21,4,56,77,88,44,885,2,5,7,98,54]

7. Iterate and display through all elements of array list.


8. Search and display an element, ie., 885.
9. Double up each array element by 2 and store them in another array list.
