| | F# |
 | | F# includes extensions for working across languages, and the aim is to have it work together seamlessly with C#, COmega, Visual Basic, SML.NET and other.NET programming languages and tools. |
 | | F# comes with a 'F# for Visual Studio 2005', an extension to Visual Studio 2005 Beta 1 that supports features such as interactive syntax highlighting, parsing and typechecking, as well as a simple project system. |
 | | Languages such as OCaml and Standard ML provide excellent general purpose programming languages suited to medium-advanced programmers who want simple yet highly expressive tools that boost their productivity, primarily by reducing the error rate, increasing their productivity through type inference, and basically letting them focus on the difficult parts of their applications. |
