Welcome to F# Weekly, A roundup of F# content from this past week: News Which programming languages are most token-efficient? – Martin Alderson How to Build Android Widgets with .NET MAUI …
Sergey’s headline is a little clickbait-y as the results put Haskell above F#. Also, the article itself admits that there are a lot of variables that were not accounted for in the test. It appearst to be a pattern of more concise languages performing better with LLMs than more verbose langauges with C being all the way at the bottom. I was under the impression that modern C# is more concise than Java, but I haven’t touched Java in years.
