This assignment covers the absolute basics of F#. Highly recommended if you're not yet familiar with the language, or need to brush up.

Inspired by EdgeCase's fantastic Ruby koans, the goal of the F# koans is to teach you F# through testing.
When you first run the koans, you'll be presented with a runtime error and a stack trace indicating where the error occured. Your goal is to make the error go away. As you fix each error, you should learn something about the F# language and functional programming in general.
Your journey towards F# enlightenment starts in the AboutAsserts.fs file. These koans will be very simple, so don't overthink them! As you progress through more koans, more and more F# syntax will be introduced which will allow you to solve more complicated problems and use more advanced techniques.
Recommended if you're familiar with the basics of F# and want to start testing your skills.

This Dojo is inspired by the Kaggle Digit Recognizer contest. The goal is to write a Machine Learning classifier from scratch, a program that will recognize hand-written digits automatically. It is a guided Dojo, suitable for beginners: the Dojo comes with a Script file, with specific tasks to complete, introducing along the way numerous F# concepts and syntax examples.
Visual assignment to show the basics of recursion in F#.

The dojo was inspired by the post "Create Fractals with Recursive Drawing". It is a good exercise in recursion.
You will access data from different sources using the F# Data library. In the first exercise of the assignment you will access an API and in the second you will read data from an XML-file.
The original Dojo contains five extra exercises, but the first two exercises will give you a good impression of the concept.

This Dojo introduces F# type providers using those from the F# Data library.
The goal of the Dojo is to find 7 secret words to find a secret phrase! To find each word, you need to solve a simple data access task using type providers - such as read XML document, perform JSON-based REST request or read data from the WorldBank; then perform simple processing to find the right word in the result and find the secret phrase! The Dojo comes with a script file containing 7 tasks - to make this a bit harder, the words are not in the original order, so you need to get most of them to find the secret phrase.
