A little biginner guide

[Stoian Stefan]

Hello,

I'm beginner in Visual Studio and F#. A saw all your work and I found it interesting but I want to see a program and what is it doing. I downloaded your work from https://github.com/mathias-brandewinder/machine-learning-projects-for-dot-net-developers, I'm adding projects in Visual Studio, I build them and then I go program and compile. When I try to open the .exe app it does nothing.

Can you help me please?

Thank you!

Hi Stoian,

Most of the code presented is intended to be run from the scripting environment, which means that you shouldn't need to compile. Visual Studio has a built-in scripting environment for F#; in VS, open the project, and go to any .fsx file (the extension describes scripts). You can then select pieces of code, and right-click / execute selection in interactive (or Alt-Enter). If you want a more detailed introduction to scripts, take a look at this for instance: https://fsharpforfunandprofit.com/ , and potentially this for more details: http://brandewinder.com/2016/02/06/10-fsharp-scripting-tips/

Hope this helps!
