Welcome to F# 101. This new language is getting quite a bit of airtime by .NET alphageeks.. This is a discussion for those who have not yet written their first F# application. We’ll look at VS2010, the F# REPL, and why you would want to get started with F# at all. We’ll discuss what makes F# a functional language and we’ll break down the syntax and conceptual barriers. By the end of this discussion you should feel comfortable starting a new F# project and diving into your first application.

This video discusses the history of F#, how it came about, the current status of the language, especially its simple model supporting parallel and asynchronous programming, and a preview of F# 3.0.

Microsoft Researchers discuss F# and it’s many applications.
TickSpec is a lightweight Behaviour Driven Development (BDD) framework. You describe behaviour in plain text using the Gherkin business language, i.e. given, when, then. It is then easy to execute the behaviour against matching F# tick methods (let “tick method“ () = true) or attributed C# or F# methods.
The video looks at TickSpec, a lightweight Open Source BDD framework, which builds on Cucumber’s Gherkin business language. It presents plenty of live samples in Visual Studio, from a simple game all the way up to a fully fledged Silverlight Trading Application.
