Too true. I read an account of some product being ported to F# (from C#) a few years back. The line count was substantially decreased (at least one order of magnitude if I'm remembering correctly) with a correlated decrease in defects. I can't find the original post, but there are plenty of supporting testimonials[1].

- tombert 10y agoYeah, as someone who gets to use F# fairly regularly, actually, it's a substantial improvement in the LOC department compared to Java or C#. I don't find it quite as reliable as something like Haskell (do to the fact that you don't have to be explicit about side-effects), but it's definitely better than most languages.
