F# 1.1.13 now available!
I’m pleased to announce that F# 1.1.13 is now available! You can download this release from research.microsoft.com/fsharp/release.aspx .
This is an exciting release, containing many important enhancements to the language that make F# programming simpler, more powerful and easier to explain and understand. We’re particularly pleased with comprehensions, which, although found in other languages, works beautifully in conjunction with other F# language features such as pattern matching. These also simplify the use of many .NET APIs and collection types. We've also included named arguments, C# 3.0-style property setters and a host of improvements to the F# library, as well as a good number of bug fixes based on feedback from our rapidly expanding user base.
We've placed a summary of the changes in this release on a separate page, a short summary is below. We'll be blogging further about some of the new features in the coming weeks, and look out for the next draft installment of the Expert F# book, coming soon.
Language Enhancements
- Range Comprehensions. e.g.
{1 .. 3}
- IEnumerable, Array and List Comprehensions.
- Named arguments and post-hoc property-setters

- Structs and Enums .

- Tightening of
#light
rules. - Custom Attributes on parameters.
- Fast 'for' loops for Range Comprehensions.
Library Enhancements

- Library addition: Matrix.copy, Vector.copy, Array2.copy, F# Immutable Map values now support the map.[i] syntax., Map, Set and HashSet now support IEnumerable
F# Interactive Enhancements
- TAB completion and history in F# Console.
Visual Studio Enhancements

Hi Dante, The best way is to read the draft Chapter 2 of "Expert F#" that's up on my blog. All oging well more chapters will be up soon. Then port a small OCaml application and look around at the other large application samples on hubFS and elsewhere. Cheers! donAnonymous

F# and Emacs work well together. I use taureg-mode and changed some things. It doesn't indent #light code correctly though.Anonymous

Hi Don, Does F# 1.1.13 have a bug with Quotations? I'm trying to get the quotation expression of a simple function like <@ let f x = x + 5 @> but the interactive compiler gives syntax errors. I also tried using <@@ ..@@>. An example would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! StephenAnonymous
February 08, 2007
Hi Stephen, Here's an example: open Microsoft.FSharp.Quotations.Typed;; <@ 3 + 3 @>;; <@ let f x = x + 5 in f 3 @>;; Your code was a declaration, not an expression. cheers! donAnonymous

Hi, We are using the F# plugin for VS. We found two issues so far, one major and one minor. It seems it is impossible to create work folders in the project overview? This makes it difficult to handle large scale projects. This probably minor impl. work, but matters a lot for organizing projects. Another thing is that endless recursion crashes VS. Example: type Window = class inherit Window This is of course a typo, however VS crashes as soon as the last 'w' is put in. We use interfaces a lot, so a Window would probably use an IWindow interface, so these kind of typos can be semi-frequent. Otherwise great work guys. We are really looking forward to getting on with F#.Anonymous

실내 온도를 빨리 올리고 싶다면 가습기를 튼다 외출 후 돌아와서 집이 추울 때 보일러 온도를 무작정 높이지 말고 적당한 온도로 맞춘다. 대신 가습기를 틀어 집에 습기를 더한다. 보일러를 작동시키면 바닥이 덥혀지면서 집이 따뜻해지는데, 습도가 높으면 공기 순환이 빨라져 집이 빨리 데워지는 효과가 있다. 출처:다음카페 생활의지혜!
