Dear R Users, I am looking for a roadmap to learn advanced functional programming in R. I have already read *Functional Programming* by Thomas Mailund, and I have been studying base R functions to understand how they are written and to learn from their design. I have analyzed and rewritten dozens of base R functions, and this process has been very instructive. However, I still find it difficult to write more complex and robust functions on my own. I would be very grateful for any advice you might have — whether in the form of recommended books, learning strategies, advanced resources, or suggestions for progressing toward more advanced functional programming skills in R. Additionally, I was wondering if there are any official workshops, teaching sessions, or training initiatives focused on advanced functional programming within the R ecosystem. Kind regards.
