Comment on Microsoft unveils the F# programming language

"That is, you don’t have to write object-oriented code with F#; you can think in more procedural terms to solve a problem."

Ouch. I don't think the author knows the difference between procedural and functional.

I doubt we do either. Procedural isn't very well defined term. Usually people mean imperative when they say procedural, and it doesn't seem like the author understands the difference between imperative and functional, other than not being able to re-assign a variable.
