F# - first time

When we use .NET Framework, the first thought goes to languages such as C# and VB.NET. If you want to write a program or services using a functional paradigm, probably your choice would include other languages, for example, Erlang, Haskell, Scala, Wolframe Language (Mathematica), and so on.

This occurs for a variety of reasons, such as the following:

• The .NET Framework and its principal languages are related to object-oriented programming

• The syntax of F# and the applications in the functional paradigm are totally different from any other .NET language

• F# was born in Microsoft research and later used in specific sectors and environments

• More functional languages, some of which were created many years before, were thought of exclusively for this paradigm

Contrary to the reasons just written, F# is a very interesting language, because it combines the potential of the .NET Framework with a simple syntax and the functional paradigm.
