We haven’t shown you any real functional code, aside from quick examples to demonstrate our ideas. Our goal so far has been to illustrate how concepts relate to one another and how the result is a very different approach to programming.
In this chapter you’ll finally get to write functional F# code, but we’ll focus on examples that can be nicely explained and demonstrated using C#. We won’t yet delve ...
