Chapter 2. Functional Core with F#

As we have seen, F# is a functional-first language where we create functions and apply them. The result of the evaluation of one of these expressions is a value, and the execution of the program is the evaluation of all the expressions that comprise it.

In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:

F# types such as primitives, tuples, records, and unions
Pattern matching
Equality and comparison
Reference cells and mutability

García-Caro Núñez

Alfonso Garca-Caro Nez is a linguist who, in recent years, changed the study of natural languages by the practice of their programming counterparts. He currently focuses on JavaScript and .NET development and has worked on developing mobile, web, and desktop applications for several industries, such as video games, education, green energy, or digital performances. He is also an international speaker who has presented at several conferences around the globe. His admiration for both the thriving JavaScript ecosystem and functional programming with F# made him look for a way to bring together both worlds, leading to the creation of Fable, an F# to JavaScript compiler that is attracting lot of attention from the community, and integrates the power and elegance of F# with the hundreds of JavaScript tools and libraries available.
