Carefully isolating functions with context and side-effects from functions with logic (called pure functions) allow the following benefits: -- Pure functions are more likely to be deterministic: given a fixed input, +- Pure functions are deterministic: given a fixed input, the output will always be the same. - Pure functions are much easier to change or replace if they need to
