summary

Concrete code examples show whether TypeScript buys practical functional benefits: compile‑time type errors when passing a number to a string, TypeScript + Ramda pipe for immutable bank‑balance pipelines, recursive customer filtering that returns names without nested loops, currying that produces reusable one‑argument functions, and a TS‑monad maybe pattern matching demo that cleanly handles null/undefined. Demos use lambda/Ramda, Ramda currying, TS‑monad and immutable Jas readonly types, and note missing higher‑kinded types as a real limitation.
