  Hi Don. I was reading "{End Bracket} Experimenting with F#" at lunch, where you said:
  
  "Math-oriented implies several things, among them... avoiding mutation-oriented programming except where truly needed. These are precisely the concerns of "functional" programming languages"
  
  In case "mutation-oriented" meant something more than a synonym for 'spaghettic-coding' I went online to search for "mutation-oriented programming" -- but the only link was the online version of your article (http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/05/07/EndBracket/)
  
  I'm wondering, what is meant by "mutation-oriented programming"? (i did a thesis on genetic algorithms... which certainly involved a form of programmatic mutation...)
  
  cheers

  p.s. 'type inference' is like a sleeping giant of an idea... i love it. And keep up the good work on F#.
