It is not whether it works or does not work, it is the way it works.

Indeed, that was my second option. I decided against because the gaffophone indeed works, the problem lies in the player.
But on a second thought...

In my book, From Imperative to Functional Programming, which will be available soon through SyncFusion for free, I do demonstrate that, separating the stateful UI aspect in C# from the database calls, written in F#.
My article How to Think Like a Functional Programmer[^] was the impetus for the book.
Essentially, use C# for stateful things, and use F# for immutable (stateless) computations. It's a pleasure to work in it, though there are some gotcha's with the type inference that can be hair pulling experiences, no different than any other FP language.
I often use VS's Interactive F# to test algorithms because I can poke and prod at the "computation" to make sure I'm doing it right.

Mighty good Mark! I am going to pore over your article pretty soon!

I've skimmed very quickly for now and bookmarked. But looks good.

Not exactly. I do not at all appreciate academic papers that speak derogatorily about COBOL.

Here is a console application that uses F# API.
C# Code:
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Console.Write( Sample.MyType.SomeMethod());
Console.Read();
}
F# API:
namespace Sample
type public MyType()= static member SomeMethod ()= "I came from F#"
It might be a little complex but I am sure you can work your way through it.

Haha, good start!
I should have tried that before! :P

....or has anybody noticed that the standard of CP started to go down since about 7 years and a day ago?

Yeah, but yesterday everything seemed ok again for a brief while... 
Anything that is unrelated to elephants is irrelephant

Or 7 years and two days ago?

No seven years and 2 days ago was the "The last of the Good days".

Now that you mentioned it, this correlates with a huge increase of the World's gin consumption.

Do you really think his fake machismo references to Gin, and now ecstasy, need reinforcing?

Have any of you left a development job for a SQL position and kept feeling "pulled" to development?

Now what is a SQL position ?
