Just read this:
https://www.codeproject.com/articles/1091356/the-elegant-code-i-wish-i-can-write-in-csharp
Which is a very nice overview of F# and functional programming - it starts
w/ this
// F# Quicksort let rec quicksort = function
| [] -> []
| x :: xs ->
let smaller = List.filter ((>) x) xs
let larger = List.filter ((<=) x) xs
quicksort smaller @ [x] @ quicksort larger
and goes through all the basics of F# until, at the end (15 short
sections), you can understand the syntax for it all. I don't know enough P6
to do that (yet?) but it'd ... hmm:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perl_6#Quicksort
looks very much the same - and I understand that one. Maybe I could do it.
