Abstract
F#’s effectiveness rests on the tried and tested foundation of functional programming. This chapter will cover the core building blocks of functional programming with F#, including simple types and function values, pattern matching, lists, and options. Chapters 4 through 6 will cover imperative programming, generics, and object-oriented programming, and Chapters 8, 9, and 10 will cover more advanced topics in functional programming with text, sequences, and structured and numeric data.
