F# in your pipe
This document summarizes Phillip Trelford's presentation on F# tools for machine learning and data science. It discusses F# meetup groups in London and Copenhagen, case studies using F# for modeling Halo 3 player skills and AdCenter learning algorithms, and live demos of F# for k-means clustering, type providers for CSV and R, and the FSLab library. It also provides testimonials on F# from Microsoft and Amyris and resources for learning more about F#.

- 7. FSHARP.ORG/TESTIMONIALS - MICROSOFT For amachine learning scientist, speed of experimentation is the critical factor to optimize. Compiling is fast but loading large amounts of data in memory takes a long time. With F#’s REPL, you only need to load the data once and you can then code and explore in the interactive environment. Unlike C# and C++, F# was designed for this mode of interaction. - Patrice Simard, Microsoft
- 8. FSHARP.ORG/TESTIMONIALS - AMYRIS BIOTECH F#has been phenomenally useful. I would be writing a lot of this in Python otherwise and F# is more robust, 20x - 100x faster to run and for anything but the most trivial programs, faster to develop. - Darren Platt, Amyris Biotechnology
