Perhaps a career in the movies beckons?!... I for one do have to say I find you very engaging and super-'quick off the mark' in the videos you do, you communicate ideas and concepts well without stuttering which is a pet peeve of mine about tech vids I've seen.

My whole opinion on this may, however, be utterly skewed by my utter obsession with C# compilerdom... :-)

Hi. I just discovered your blog.

Any chance of a default functional collection library for .NET? Just functional equivalents to all the collections in System.Collections.Generic? Call it System.Collections.Immutable or something.

I am working on a large project where we actually wrote our own functional collection library. One data structure I am very proud of is a HashSet based on a crit bit tree. We use it to implement Sets and Maps. The good thing is that your keys do not have to implement IComparable<T>. It is also much more efficient than an AVL tree.

We are using struct wrappers for the three basic data types Set<T>, Map<K,V> and List<T>, so you do not have to initialize them or check for null. An uninitialized Set<T> is equivalent to Set<T>.Empty.

Just steal those bits from F#...

I keep getting timeout problems trying to download these files (they're HUGE). Is there someplace else I can grab these files?
