F# is a Microsoft .NET language that offers support for functional programming in addition to object-oriented and imperative programming. In this course, you'll learn how to use Access Control, Signature Files, and Assertions in F#, as well as how to use Strings, Collections, casting, and conversions. You'll also explore the use of Generics and data and then delve into working with asynchronous data-driven Apps with F#.

Objectives

Access Control, Signature Files, Assertions start the course use access control specifiers in F# programs generate F# signature files to reference modules and namespaces for F# programs use assertions to test F# programs Strings, Collections, and Conversions manipulate string values in F# programs use collections and work with data sequences in F# work with data arrays in F# including multidimensional and jagged arrays work with lists in F# work with datasets and maps in F# use conversion or casting to change type including collection types and objects in F# influence type inference by changing literals and using annotations in F# overload operators in F# Patterns, Null, Options, Units of Measure create patterns and implement pattern matching expressions in F# use active patterns in pattern matching expressions in F# enable null values and use the option type in F# programs use units of measure including generic units of measure in F# Generics and Records describe generics in F# and apply constraints to generic type parameters define records, contrast them with classes, and use records in F# programs Querying Data use basic query expressions in F# programs use F# to filter, sort, group and aggregate data sets use expressions in F# to query multiple data sources The Task Parallel Library recognize contrast threading and the TPL, and implement basic data and task parallelism in F# Asynchronous and Message-based Programs implement asynchronous workflows in F# create an MVVM app with F# implement message-based programming in F# use computational expressions in F# Data Visualization implement basic charts with F# implement dynamic charts with F# Practice: Async Data-driven Apps with F# use asynchronous workflows in an MVVM F# application
