F# Type Annotation

F# allows type annotation. By using type annotation you can explicitly mention the type of identifier, parameter, return value of a function. You must use: (colon) to apply annotation in F#.

Let’s see where and how we can apply type annotation.

  • Type annotation in variable (identifier)
  • Type annotation in function parameter and return type
