Why HN links it

HN readers link this blog's reading-list post, which recommends books for learning F#. Commenters cite it as a guide to F# books, and the author's own comments are excluded.

Summarised by Claude from a sample of 2 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.

What Hacker News says?

  1. As I'm just 50 pages in, so far it's basically all familiar stuff, because I already have read most of the article series on fsharpforfunandprofit.com . I was searching for recommendations online and people on reddit were recommending this book, together with Expert F# . There is also this article recommending those two books: http://jorgetavares.com/2015/01/01/reading-list-for-f-learni...

  3. I wrote already some time ago a post about which books to read to learn F# (see http://jorgetavares.com/2015/01/01/reading-list-for-f-learni... ). In the meantime there are a couple more (e.g., Deep Dives) which are also good.
