Language madness

Over the last couple of days I installed and got working both Iron Python and its big brother F# (Microsoft's reimplemenation of the OCaml language, itself a reimplementation of ML which is sort of a Python-esque compilable language for mathematicians which I have always been fascinated by but never managed to write anything useful with ... something to do with being able prove a theorem in fifty lines and taking ten lines just to open a file same as in C++)
At a loss how to try them out though, maybe I will follow Jon Udell and try writing Azure Services with them!
