Still waiting on an F# book or tutorial which doesn't assume I already know C# backwards and forwards...that is all.

Aesthetically speaking, I find F# to be absolutely gorgeous. I'm not sure why, but it just seems really clean to me. Performance is great, and I like how .NET has objects for everything that can be called out to. I gave OCaml a try, but found F# to have a much richer standard library due to .NET.

It is really an uphill battle though as I'm mostly a beginner with functional programming and a .NET beginner with little C# experience. So I don't know either lingo. One day I hope to have enough time to get past the hump.

I own 3 F# books. They all assume at least intermediate C# experience.
