This allows you to build applications targeting any of these frameworks using Visual Studio 2008: .NET Framework 2.0 - released with Visual Studio 2005 .NET Framework 3.0 - released with Windows Vista .NET Framework 3.5 - will release with Visual Studio Orcas When targeting .NET Framework 2.0, for example, Visual Studio will try to protect you from using any features that are only available in a higher framework version.

This lets you confidently use Visual Studio 2008 for targeting any of these three platforms. New projects can be created targeting any of these frameworks, and projects can later be changed to target a different framework. Why is this so important? We've heard over-and-over again from .NET developers about how much harder it is to move to the next framework version than to move to the next Visual Studio version. A few details...

Tomas Petricek and I provided the F# filling, and Zach Bray applied the F# source. Turning to the Functional Side With F# F# is a multi-paradigm programming language with first-class support for Functional Programming, and ships with Visual Studio 2010. Using a mixture of presentation and practical exercises this session aims to help you: learn how to use F# think in a functional way model problem domains using functional types The morning tasks were based on a Point-of-sale (POS) application. Domain Model: Product lookup: Functions to be implemented in the task: Sale type: Failing tests: If you'd like to learn more about F#, there are still places left at the Progressive F# Tutorials at Skills Matter in London on November 3-4th: Be the first to rate this post. Unboxing FP. How hard is it to get started in functional programming?

Unboxing FP

Let’s have a look at how quickly you can get started on a selection of simple expression-oriented programming languages. Today let’s try Clojure, Elm, F#, Haskell and OCaml. Online REPL No install required just point your browser at a URL and you’re off: Each language has an easy to use online REPL with simple lessons to get you through the basics. Development environment Now you’ve covered the basics you probably want to install a lightweight development environment and start building larger programs: Clojure I found LightTable very quick to install and setup.

I’ve been using Stuart Holloway’s Programming Clojure book as a guide. Elm Elm has a very usable online editor, a simple installable REPL, and a wonderful playground feature with Elm Reactor: If you’re on Windows and have Visual Studio installed then you’ve already got F#. On Mac I’d recommend Xamarin Studio and for Linux MonoDevelop or Emacs. Haskell. New Visual F# Templates for ASP.NET, Web API, MSTest and Nancy Now Available - Visual F# Tools Team Blog.
