    <p>In my opinion learning functional programming it is not only a good idea because it makes you a better programmer (think which I agree, of course) but because it seems it will become very popular in a near future. </p> <p>A lot "gurus" are saying that it will be the only way to keep Moore's law alive. Computer clock speed has reach a top and the only way to improve processors speed will be adding more and more cores. In this scenario functional programing becomes handy because in those languages data is immutable and that makes them very easy to paralelize (it can be done automatically actually). </p> <p>You might want to have a look to the next references</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.gotw.ca/publications/concurrency-ddj.htm" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Free lunch is over</a>: An excellent and famous article by Herb Sutter explaining the Moore's law issue</li> <li><a href="http://www.ddj.com/development-tools/212201710;jsessionid=3MQLTTYJRPL3CQSNDLRSKH0CJUNN2JVN" rel="nofollow noreferrer">It's Time to Get Good at Functional Programming</a>: a Dr Dobbs post regarding this subject</li> <li><a href="http://www.infoq.com/news/2008/06/scala-vs-erlang" rel="nofollow noreferrer">InfoQ comparison between Erlang and Scala</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.google.es/url?sa=t&amp;source=web&amp;ct=res&amp;cd=7&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nwcpp.org%2FDownloads%2F2008%2FFunctional_Programming_with_F.pdf&amp;ei=f4pnSp6yJZ-OnQO7zYynDw&amp;usg=AFQjCNGljK0Ax0j8jSWAT3eazA30IDNo4A&amp;sig2=jHDxU-1wx3td8Pln4_77cw" rel="nofollow noreferrer">A presentation about F# that also mentions this issue</a></li> </ul> <p>Buff, I hope it wasn't too bored, ;-)</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
