Wed, 9 Jul 2008, 18:30 - 21:00 (Add to calendar)
Venue
The Castlegate, Newcastle upon Tyne, GB
Cost
FREE

Date: Wednesday 9 July 2008........Taking efficiency one step further - F# Microsoft Research describes F# as "a scripted/functional/imperative/object-oriented programming language". Combining all those aspects in one language is certainly not an easy task, but they've done a good job of it. F# is interesting both as a language to actually consider for your projects and as a source of features that might make it into the mainstream .NET languages tomorrow. The session uses many examples to give you a good general overview of F#. To complement the introductory session, Oliver is going to show some more advanced samples from his talk “Data Handling in F#” and there will also be room for Q&A as well as discussion. Please arrive from 18:30 for a 19:00 start.
