In the era of multiprocessor and multimachine processing, functional principles are becoming increasingly important for modern programmers. For those developing in the Microsoft ecosystem, F# is a functional first multiparadigm language that allows practitioners to apply these principles in a truly powerful way. As developers become more familiar with functional data structures and the algorithms that use them truly safely, by extension, powerful software will become a more commonplace commodity that will drive the next era of technological innovation. I can't think of a more thorough and thoughtful person to help guide us through these principles than Adnan. Enjoy!
