Yes I have. I actually bought the few only F# books available. It's a nice language, and an incredible amount of work. The Visual Studio plugin also works well. But somehow I found Haskell cleaner... Its laziness is a better for me ;-) But I might switch back to F# someday, and then learning Haskell will have helped a lot. Hugh Perkins wrote:
Have you tried F#? I mean, I havent ;-) but maybe it's an interesting half-way house? Presumably you can use all the standard .Net libraries (maybe good enough for getting asp.net working etc?), and you can still use FP constructs?
I understand F# is not pure (I think?), and doesnt have monads, but hey, life's full of compromises ;-)
