Presentation: "The Busy .NET Developer's Guide to F#"
Time: Friday 09:30 - 10:30
Location: Westminster Suite
F# represents Microsoft's entry into the functional programming world, and for many .NET developers it represents both an opportunity and a challenge.
Opportunity, in that functional programming can make a whole range of tasks much, much easier; challenging, in that functional programming represents an entirely new way of looking at how to think about designing and writing .NET code.
In this presentation, we'll examine the syntax of F#, see how it maps to the underlying CLR concepts, talk about how F# implements functional concepts without losing many of the benefits of object orientation, and finally, how it can be used to make the CLR developer's life much easier.
