.net - How will F# (sharp) be used?

Question

I'm having trouble placing the concepts and possiblities of the to be introduced F# language from Microsoft.

Will F# be used just for declaring functions? Or will applications be written 'entirely' in F# by mixing F# together with normal C# or VB code?

Answer 1

I can highly recommend you to watch Luca Bolognese's talk from PDC 2008. It's not only very entertaining but he also demonstrates quite impressive use cases of F#:
