16. F#: Combining Paradigms

I've been coding in F# lately, for a production task.
F# allows you to move smoothly in your
programming style... I start with pure functional code,
shift slightly towards an object-oriented style, and in
production code, I sometimes have to do some
imperative programming.
I can start with a pure idea, and still finish my
project with realistic code. You're never
disappointed in any phase of the project!

Orthogonal & Unified
Constructs
Type inference.
• Let “let” simplify your
The
safety of C# with the
succinctness of a
life… scripting language
Bind a static value
let data = (1,2,3)
Bind a static function
Bind a local value
Bind a local function
let f(a,b,c) =
let sum = a + b + c
let g(x) = sum + x*x
g(a), g(b), g(c)

22. Demo: Let’s WebCrawl…

23. Orthogonal & Unified Constructs

Orthogonal & Unified Constructs
• Functions: like delegates + unified and
simple
One simple
Anonymous

predicate = 'a -> bool
(fun x -> x + 1) many
Function value

send = 'a -> unit
let f(x) = x + 1

24. F# - Functional

let f x = x+1
let pair x = (x,x)
let fst (x,y) = x
let data = (Some [1;2;3], Some [4;5;6])
match data with
| Some(nums1), Some(nums2) -> nums1 @ nums2
| None, Some(nums)
-> nums
| Some(nums), None

| None, None

26. Immutability the norm…

Data is
immutable by
default
Values
may not be
changed
Copy &
Not Mutate
Update

27. In Praise of Immutability

• Immutable objects can be relied upon
• Immutable objects can transfer between
threads
• Immutable objects can be aliased safely
• Immutable objects lead to (different)
optimization opportunities

28. F# - Lists

Generated
Lists
open System.IO
let rec allFiles(dir) =
[ for file in Directory.GetFiles(dir) do
yield file
for sub in Directory.GetDirectories(dir) do
yield! allFiles(sub) ]
allFiles(@"C:\Demo")

29. F# - Sequences

On-demand
sequences
open System.IO
let rec allFiles(dir) =
seq
{ for file in Directory.GetFiles(dir) do
yield file
for sub in Directory.GetDirectories(dir) do
yield! allFiles(sub) }
allFiles(@"C:\WINDOWS")

30. Weakly Typed? Slow?

//F#
#light
open System
let a = 2
Console.WriteLine(a)
//C#
using System;
namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
    class Program
    {
        static int a()
        {
            return 2;
        }
Looks Weakly         static void Main(string[] 
args)
typed?
Maybe Dynamic?        {
            Console.WriteLine(a);     
       
        }
    }

37. F# Async/Parallel

38. The Solution

In parallel programming,
F# is a power tool
• Good Architecture
for good architects and
good developers
• Know your techniques
• Know your requirements
• Know your limits (CPU, disk, network, latency)
• Translate Good Architecture into Good
Code with F#
• A great platform
• A massive increase in isolation and immutability
• A massive reduction in mutation
