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). The conference usually lasts 3 days, surrounded by co-located workshops devoted to particular functional languages or application areas.
The ICFP has also held an open annual programming contest since 1998, called the [[ICFP Programming Contest]]. Affiliated events include the [[Haskell Symposium]] and the [[Workshop on Generic Programming]] (WGP).
