Call F# function from C# passing function as a parameter

Call F# function from C# passing function as a parameter

You can call an F# function from C# and pass a function as a parameter by using a delegate.

Here's an example of how to define an F# function that takes a delegate as a parameter:

// F# function that takes a delegate as a parameter let applyFunc f x = f x

In this example, the applyFunc function takes two parameters: a function f and a value x. The function f is a delegate that takes a value of the same type as x as a parameter.

Here's an example of how to call the applyFunc function from C# and pass a lambda expression as the delegate:

// C# code that calls the F# function with a lambda expression as the delegate Func<int, int> square = x => x * x; // define the lambda expression int result = FSharpLibrary.ApplyFunc(square, 5); // call the F# function

In this example, the square variable is defined as a lambda expression that takes an integer as a parameter and returns the square of that integer. The ApplyFunc function from the F# library is then called with the square lambda expression as the delegate and the value 5 as the second parameter.

The Func<int, int> delegate type is used to define the lambda expression, which takes an integer as a parameter and returns an integer. The ApplyFunc function then takes this delegate as its first parameter, along with the value 5 as its second parameter.

When calling an F# function from C#, you may need to reference the F# library in your C# project and add the appropriate using or open statements to access the F# functions and types.
