Answer 1

As Tony indicated in his answer this is not much better as of F# 4.6. Testing a similar example using .NET Core SDK 3.0.100-preview4-011158 I was able to demonstrate use of the new Anonymous Record feature. As for the RouteMap method, I'm unfamiliar with what types of values this API accepts but I would suspect that the example below would work.

Ex.

routes.MapRoute(
    "Default", // Route name
    "{controller}/{action}/{id}", // URL with parameters
    {| controller = "Home"; action = "Index"; id = UrlParameter.Optional |} // Parameter defaults
  )

Notice the use of the | character on the insides of the curly braces. This is what now distinguishes regular records from anonymous records in F#.

As for your other example, perhaps the F# example would now look such as below.

let a = {| name = "cow"; sound = "moooo"; omg = "wtfbbq" |}
