Lately I've been getting back to basics with regards to recursion. This is a basic and essential skill, especially in the functional programming world. Today's dive will be into immutable lists and recursion. I'll do my best to provide the F# and C# equivalent...

You may have noticed that I've been talking a bit about concurrency and Erlang recently . I've started to notice that others are taking notice and giving Erlang another look. I've been a fan of the language for a while, although it is a functional language...

Just a reminder about tonight's DC ALT.NET meeting. I hope some from the FringeDC and the NoVA Language Group can make it out tonight as it's quite on topic. The June meeting for DC ALT.NET has been set up for June 24th from 7-9PM. Check out our site...
Over the past couple of months, I've been working on some language oriented programming concepts in F# to prove how Domain Specific Languages could work. This coincided with my lofty goals of working towards more Behavior Driven Development (BDD) frameworks...
I'm finally getting back to my concurrency in .NET posts after a brief hiatus after I got sidetracked on various other functional programming issues such as some language oriented programming and functional C#. In the previous post , I talked about MPI...
In the last installment of Functional C# , I covered a bit about creating delayed evaluation lists based upon unfolding constructs and generating lists from external resources. Those are some of the higher level high order functions you can do in C#,...

In a previous post , I talked about how I thought C# has some significant drawbacks from being considered a more functional language. But, that wasn't to exclude it as a language altogether, as it has some pretty useful features. Lately, when I have been...
