F#unctional Londoners Meetup Group:Pacman Kata
Pacman Kata

Pacman finds himself in a grid filled with monsters. Will he be able to eat all the dots on the board before the monsters eat him?

  • pacman is on a grid filled with dots
  • pacman eats dots
  • pacman stops on walls
  • ghosts follow pacman...

Lets start the new year with a hands-on coding Kata by implementing Pacman. Suitable for people new to F# who'd like to learn more and for more experienced F# developers looking to practice their skills. See also: http://codingdojo.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?KataPacMan for more info.

After attending, you’ll be able to recognize where using F# can save your time and money and you’ll know how to integrate F# components in the .NET ecosystem. Find out more here

Tomas Petricek & Phil Trelford's Functional Programming in .NET

Tomas Petricek’s and Phil Trelford’s two-day Functional Programming in .NET course explains concepts that you need to write modern applications for .NET using F#, C# with LINQ as well as current and upcoming .NET technologies that arise from functional programming ideas. Learning several simple functional concepts will help you understand these technologies and use them effectively. This means that the course will make you a better programmer even if you’re not going to immediately start using F#. This course is based on experience of developing commercial applications in F# and we’ll discuss good ways of introducing F# to your daily work.. Find out more here
