| | But first What is functional programming ? Functional programming is a programming paradigm in which most computation is treated as evaluation of functions. It emphasizes on expression evaluation instead of command execution. Wikipedia When did it all start ? In the 90s, there was a war between declarative programming and imperative programming.

| The main focus of this article will be on attempting to design a system to support asynchronous destructors in the Rust programming language, figuring the exact semantics of them and resolving any issues encountered along the way. By side effect, it also designs a language feature called async genericity which enables supporting blocking and asynchronous code with the same codebase, as well as designing a system for completion-guaranteed futures to be added to the language.
