November PADNUG Meeting - F# - Functional Fun for Everyone!

*** Notice: We are meeting on Thursday this week to avoid election conflicts! ***

No typo this time :-) .

This is a presentation I’ve been looking forward to for quite some time. F# is a fascinating demonstration of what can be built on top of the .NET platform and has now left the Microsoft Research labs to join the mainstream world of .NET programming languages.

WHERE:	Microsoft Portland Office located in Lincoln Tower 10260 SW Greenburg Road Suite 600 Portland, OR 97223
WHO:	Nick Muhonan Nick Muhonen, a Portland area resident, has been working in and teaching Microsoft .Net technologies for the past 8 years. He currently works for his company, Useable Concepts, as a freelance certified trainer and software architect, helping others reach technical goals and new levels of understanding.
TOPIC:	F# - Functional Fun for Everyone! "A succinct, type-inferred, expressive, efficient functional and object-oriented language for the .NET platform." Nick Muhonen discusses Microsoft’s CAML based language F# including its language and its interactive environment. And of course- demos for the faithful!
