  • Porting Quake III to F#: A Journey to Functional Programming

    3:30 PM Saturday   Room: 3401
    FQuake3 is a project started by Will as an attempt to port id Software’s Quake III Arena to F# and to figure out how functional programming can be applied to game engines. The project is less than a year old, and has been worked on by Will in his free time. The talk will discuss Will’s journey to the founding of F# and why he started this project. The project structure, demos, code examples, and comparisons will be presented.
