Largest palindrome made from the product of two n-digit numbers
A generalised version of the solution to the fourth Project Euler problem - Largest palindrome product, using sequences. The key to understanding this code is how "Seq.map (fun x -> (Seq.map (fun y -> x * y) baseSeq)) baseSeq" generates a sequence of sequences that contains the products of all possible combinations of two n-digit numbers. "Seq.map (fun x -> (Seq.map (fun y -> x * y) {1..3})) {1..3}" will generate: seq [seq [1; 2; 3]; seq [2; 4; 6]; seq [3; 6; 9]]
