Yet Another Project Euler Series (YAPES)(diditwith.net)

submitted by lenielleniel(489) 3 years, 9 months ago

For the past several months, I've been using F# to solve at least two Project Euler problems each week. I find this is a great way to sharpen my math skills and my F# skills simultaneously.

Apples And Oranges(diditwith.net)

submitted by JOELROXORJOELROXOR(235) 3 years, 10 months ago

"[A] recent blog post caused quite a stir on the F# mailing list. The post presents two solutions for Project Euler Problem 14: one in C# and the other in F#. The C# version clearly is hand-optimized for speed (and is indeed very fast), but the F# solution isn't. Instead, the F# code appears to be written with elegance and brevity in mind.

Why I love F#: Option Types(diditwith.net)

submitted by dengar007dengar007(3084) 3 years, 11 months ago

Dustin Campbell goes over F# option types. Option types are a simple example of a discriminated (or tagged) union, although understanding that isn't necessary in order to use them. Simply put, an option type wraps a value with information indicating whether or not the value exists. For C# or VB programmers, it may be convenient to think of option types as a mutant cross between .NET 2.0 nullable types and the null object design pattern. read more...
