F# Compiler (zip)

Available via zip distribution rather than msi. F# is a variant of the ML programming language for .NET and has a core language that is similar to OCaml. F# is a mixed functional/imperative/object-oriented programming language excellent for medium/advanced programmers and for teaching. It also can be used to access hundreds of .NET libraries, and the F# code can be accessed from C# and other .NET languages. This release of F# includes a command-line compiler; “F# for Visual Studio,” which provides interactive syntax highlighting, parsing, type checking, and intellisense for F# code inside Visual Studio 2003/2005/Orcas; and “F# Interactive,” a command-line, top-level environment for F#.
