Presentation: "Pragmatic F# in Action"
Track:
Emerging Languages
Time: Thursday 16:30 - 17:30
Location: Olympic
Abstract: F# is Microsoft's multi-paradigm language which sets out to deal with
problems in the .Net ecosystem that are more easily solved with a
functional approach. Perhaps you've seen some of the basic syntax which
although itself is interesting, it's now time to check out what people
are doing with the language in a commercial context. We'll show how F#
helps out with concurrent programming in an actual enterprise
application including legacy code interaction. We'll also discuss OO +
FP as an architectural decision: the good, the bad, and the ugly.
