Summary

In this chapter we looked into the F# language and its various features in more detail. The objective was to introduce in more detail relevant parts of the language to be used later throughout the book. F# is a big language and not all features are useful at once. There are many resources to explore on the Internet, and the F# 3.0 Specification is one of them. Some of the examples here were quite large and contain many of the features and aspects covered.

You will be well prepared for the next chapter if you have digested the material provided here. Next up is financial mathematics and numerical analysis.
