What Hacker News says
4 sourcesYou are going to do the same things in a new language whatever you were doing in Python. I understand you are working on web and data science domains.
So I would recommend you check out F# which is like OCaml but runs on the Common Language Runtime. While it is really good on web platform, you might want to investigate the state of data science domain in F#. There are some guides here[1] and here[2].
1. https://fsharp.org/guides/data-science/
2. https://github.com/fsprojects/awesome-fsharp#data-science
In Should I Haskell or OCaml?I'd suggest having a look through https://github.com/fsprojects/awesome-fsharp and look at the high starred items (though some are not strictly F# but just something F# can use)
maybe something like suave (backend web framework).
The bigger problem I found going down the F# route is F# libraries go dead. For long term projects, far better not to use any thirdpary F# libraries and just use pretty popular third party .net libs from the C# world or the core .net lib. These days I mostly just use C#. The advantages of F# are not that big compared to just writing C# with a similar coding mindset.
In Writing high performance F# code> can I use this for 'real life' code as part of an existing C# desktop application .. without tons of hassle
Yes. Your standard OOP features like inheriting from C# classes, implementing interfaces, etc are supported natively in F#. The main hassle in being C#-compatible is exposing an external OOP api with only .NET types and interfaces instead of standard F# types. This means, for example, exposing `seq` (`IEnumerable`) instead of `list` (`Microsoft.FSharp.Collections.List`) or using the struct-tuple construct in F# 4.1 so C# 7 can access it.
