F# Presentation - Slides and Demos

Posted by Chris Alcock on 18 May 2008 | Tagged as: .NET, Community, Development, Talks / Presentations

Last Thursday (15th May) I presented at the Liverpool Users of .NET monthly meeting on F#, the Microsoft Research Language demonstrating that the CLR is a good basis for Functional Programming. My talk was mainly a language overview, with the intention to give the audience a grounding upon which they could get started with the language and functional programming in general.

The code samples from the presentation, including one or two I skipped out can be found here:

My thanks to the audience - you made giving the talk very easy, and enjoyable and especially to Hakim Cassimally for the nice write up of the talk over on his blog.
