What makes you say that F# is an inspiration for F? I recently went through the F tutorial and saw no mention of that. Obviously F* is an ML, but it seems more like Ocaml than F#.



Might be referring to the fact that quite a bit of f-star is written in F# and that F# is an emit option?

That said, the F# code that you see in the compiler source looks syntactically more like OCAML and makes little use of .NET.


Excellent illustration of 7331's sister-level comment... your two *s have turned into markup
