Possible Duplicate: F# explicit match vs function syntax Hello, I am learning F# and am confused by 'fun' and 'function' keywords. My understanding is that these are sort of the same thing. // Use 'fun' let testFunction1 = fun argument -> match argument with | Some(x) -> x | None -> 0 // Use 'function' let testFunction2 = function | Some(x) -> x | None -> 0 Is 'function' just shorthand for "fun x -> match x with"? Is there any runtime / optimization difference between the two? Why would I prefer to use one over the other? As it stands, 'function' just seems to make code harder to read. Am I missing something?
