Thanks for considering [A Common-Sense Guide to Data Structures and Algorithms, Second Edition:](https://forum.devtalk.com/t/a-common-sense-guide-to-data-structures-and-algorithms-second-edition-pragprog/418) for a book club - it delighted me to see that!

The book is certainly relevant for functional programming languages too. While I wrote most of the code in object-oriented style, the core concepts are relevant for virtually all languages. It might be an interesting exercise to adapt some of the algorithms and write them in functional style.

I hope that helps!

-Jay
