Re: I like playing in F major

No it's not based on Fortran (in the same way C is not based on COBOL).

While F# Is functional, it has always supported OO programming, and even mutability (you just need to declare variables as such - like Rust)

The biggest impediment to F# adoption is the number of features that have migrated to C#
