## Description
|
||
|
<section id='description'>
|
||
|
Functional programming is a style of programming where solutions are simple, isolated functions, without any side effects outside of the function scope.
|
||
|
<code>INPUT -> PROCESS -> OUTPUT</code>
|
||
|
Functional programming is about:
|
||
|
1) Isolated functions - there is no dependence on the state of the program, which includes global variables that are subject to change
|
||
|
2) Pure functions - the same input always gives the same output
|
||
|
3) Functions with limited side effects - any changes, or mutations, to the state of the program outside the function are carefully controlled

## Instructions

||
|
The members of freeCodeCamp happen to love tea.
|
||
|
In the code editor, the <code>prepareTea</code> and <code>getTea</code> functions are already defined for you. Call the <code>getTea</code> function to get 40 cups of tea for the team, and store them in the <code>tea4TeamFCC</code> variable.

## Tests

<section id='tests'>

||
|
```yml
|
||
|
- text: The <code>tea4TeamFCC</code> variable should hold 40 cups of tea for the team.
|
||
|
testString: 'assert(tea4TeamFCC.length === 40, "The <code>tea4TeamFCC</code> variable should hold 40 cups of tea for the team.");'
|
||
|
- text: The <code>tea4TeamFCC</code> variable should hold cups of green tea.
|
||
|
testString: 'assert(tea4TeamFCC[0] === "greenTea", "The <code>tea4TeamFCC</code> variable should hold cups of green tea.");'
