Asynchronous Computation Expressions are an extremely powerful feature in F#. It's important to not only know how to use them, but also to extend the behavior so that other classes can bind and perform asynchronous behavior. What I want to show in this post is how easy it is to add this behavior to any custom web service that you may create.

A received a few comments on my blog about type inference and its affect on readability saying that the problem isn't really a problem if you have proper tool support.  You have API docs, IDE based assistance, and even interesting tools like the OCaml Browser.  The problem is that these don't really

This looks interesting…local C# MVP Kevin Hazzard is moving up in the alphabet with a series for beginners on F#, the new functional programming language out of Microsoft Research. First two installments are already up…definitely one I’ll be following.

I've been pondering the results of the Cedric's Code Challenge, and wondering just how much benefit is derived from optimized, purpose-specific solutions as opposed to solutions that rely on a more general libraries or frameworks.  It's fairly common to see debates where one person (or group) insists

Lately, I've been heads down on a lot of concurrency items which will hopefully come out soon. In the mean time, I want to get back to the basics one last time with recursion. As I posted earlier, I've been talking about recursion in the past couple of posts, and this one will be one last on the topic.

Very recently, I've given a few talks on Asynchronous and Concurrent Programming in F#. In this talk, I gave a brief overview of the options you have when dealing with concurrency and asynchronous behavior.

At this point we’ve developed a complete, though very simple, interpreter and runtime environment. To some degree, this interpreter is all we need. It can express any function, it can easily be extended, it has a simple parser, and it has a working garbage collector. What more could we ask for? Life is good.

Hee! The Koan of Static Type Safety A disciple of another sect invited Markus Mottl to the beach. As he is driving his car along, he tells Markus: "Dynamic Typing makes me more productive! I can write my program faster if I do not have to worry about the compiler complaining about types".
