Tons this week.  Vladimir Matveev’s is my favorite new F# blogger with very well written data structure posts, Ashley Feniello continues his fantastic FScheme series, and Jomo Fisher posts some great Freebase and DGML examples.  That’s just the tip of the F# iceberg, do come inside.   Ashley Feniello’s FScheme Parts Twelve, ...

Between Atalasoft, Professional F# 2.0 and the MVP Summit I’ve been completely swamped and ended up with quite a backlog of posts.  Between the Brian-Chris F# Code Battle, Luca’s LChart, Ashley’s continuing FScheme series and Matthew’s MongoDB stuff I’m not sure I can pick a favorite.  That’s not true, I’d go right for the DAWG-fight ...

The more I use F# the more I want to write my every day production C# code in a functional way.  To this end, I’ve written a few higher order extension methods as the need arose.  I wanted to take a moment and share them with you.  I think that in seeing an implementation of these functions in C#, what they do becomes easy to ...

Back again with another F# community roundup.   There’s been a ton of great content this week, almost too much.  To try to combat this I’ve attempted to sort posts roughly in terms of how interesting I found them.  All were worth the read though. Also, I’ll be speaking this Wednesday on F# at the Boston .NET User Group.  ...

Also, I’d like to thank everyone who supported me on the road to becoming a Microsoft MVP.  I couldn’t have done it without ...

It’s been a bit of a light week with the holidays.  Although, for the truly dedicated, that’s just a chance to get some quality time in with with a favorite programming language (or to write a poem about it).   Tomas Petricek uses Accelerator in a GPU Game of Life simulation This article is the second one from a series about using ...

By far the most exciting news this week was the preview release of Microsoft Research Accelerator.  Posts on this topic by Satnam Signh and Tomas Petricek have left the F# world buzzing.  This, however, is just the tip of the F# iceberg.  News of the F# Survival Guide’s release and a number of other exciting posts follow.   ...
