Scot Alt.Net and StormId are proud to annouce Scotland’s first [citation required ] F# Code Retreat!

What is a Code Retreat?

The first Code Retreat took place in January 2009 and was created by Patrick Welsh, Nayan Hajratwala and Corey Haines.  Their aim was to create a repeatable, day-long event that was focused on practicing the fundamentals of software development.

How it works?

The goal is to tackle a set problem, in pairs, for 45 minutes with a 15 minute retrospective after.  Everyone pairs off with someone different and the problem is tackled again.

Do I need to know F#?

Knowing a little will help, but not required.

What do I need?
