This free online converter lets you convert code from Groovy to Fsharp in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
- Type or paste your Groovy code in the input box.
- Click the convert button.
- The resulting Fsharp code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.
Examples
The following are examples of code conversion from Groovy to Fsharp using this converter. Note that you may not always get the same code since it is generated by an AI language model which is not 100% deterministic and gets updated from time to time.
Example 1 - Is String Palindrome
Program that checks if a string is a palindrome or not.

Key differences between Groovy and Fsharp
Characteristic | Groovy | Fsharp |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Groovy has a syntax similar to Java, with additional features like closures and dynamic typing. | F# has a syntax inspired by ML languages, with features like pattern matching and type inference. |
Paradigm | Groovy supports both object-oriented programming and functional programming paradigms. | F# is a multi-paradigm language that supports functional programming, object-oriented programming, and imperative programming. |
Typing | Groovy is dynamically typed, allowing for flexible and concise code. | F# is statically typed, providing strong type checking and compile-time type inference. |
Performance | Groovy is generally slower than statically typed languages like Java. | F# is a compiled language that can achieve good performance. |
Libraries and frameworks | Groovy has a wide range of libraries and frameworks available, including integration with Java libraries. | F# has a growing ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, particularly for data science and web development. |
Community and support | Groovy has an active community and good support, with resources and documentation available. | F# has a smaller but dedicated community, with good support from Microsoft and open-source contributors. |
Learning curve | Groovy has a relatively low learning curve, especially for developers familiar with Java. | F# has a moderate learning curve, particularly for developers new to functional programming. |
