Deal of the day: Real-World Functional Programming
Some time ago, I received my copies of Real-World Functional Programming. I started working on it back in May 2008 and as many people who had more experience with writing books told me, it took longer than I was expecting!

Accelerator and F# (IV.): Composing computations with quotations
In this article series we're talking about the Accelerator project, which can be used from F# to write code that runs in parallel on GPU or multi-core CPU. In this article, we'll look at building complex data-parallel programs with F# quotations, we'll implement blur filter and we'll also discuss architecture and performance.

Accelerator and F# (III.): Data-parallel programs using F# quotations
We already discussed how to write programs that run on GPU using MSR Accelerator. In this article, we'll write an image rotation using data-parallel F# functions and then use a library that translates it to Accelerator automatically.

I expect that the final version of the book will be compatible with the next beta version of Visual Studio 2010. However, before that becomes available I'm using F# September CTP. Earlier versions of F# (from Microsoft Research) are not supported, so if you don't have the latest version I recommend downloading it:

Microsoft F#, September 2008 Community Technology Preview [^] (Microsoft Downloads)
