Why F#?

If someone had told me a few months ago I’d be playing with .NET again after a 15+ years hiatus I probably would have laughed at this.1 Early on in my career I played with .NET and Java, and even though .NET had done some things better than Java (as it had the opportunity to learn from some early Java mistakes), I quickly settled on Java as it was a truly portable environment. I had some C# courses in the university and I wrote my bachelor’s thesis in C#. It was a rewrite of Arch Linux’s pacman, running on Mono. This was way back in 2007. ↩
