Apology received regarding F#, but you could have looked into it a little bit. I think you'd find the features to be somewhat self explanatory. String interpolation, nothing too confusing, Support for Jupyter and VS Code notebooks (huge for data science), Nameof (same as C#), Improved Interop with C#, Python style slicing. The only two that are likely to stump you are Quotations improvements and Applicative style computation expressions. Quotations are used to generate code for other languages. Applicative computation expressions are a tidy way to gather up many results at once. Next time instead of just apologizing take a glance, you may be surprised at just how much you understand :).
