The '''[[Association for Computing Machinery|ACM]] [[SIGPLAN]] International Conference on Functional Programming''' ('''ICFP''') is an annual [[academic conference]] in the field of [[computer science]] sponsored by the [[Association for Computing Machinery|ACM]] [[SIGPLAN]], in association with [[International Federation for Information Processing|IFIP]] Working Group 2.8 (Functional Programming). The conference focuses on [[functional programming]] and related areas of [[programming language]]s, [[logic]], [[compiler]]s and [[software development]].
 
The ICFP was first held in 1996, replacing two biennial conferences: '''Functional Programming and Computer Architecture''' ('''FPCA''') and '''LISP and Functional Programming''' ('''LFP'''). The conference ___location alternates between Europe (odd-numbered years) and North America (even-numbered years){{Citation needed|date=January 2018}}. The conference usually lasts 3 days, surrounded by co-located workshops devoted to particular functional languages or application areas.
