Anyone heard of F#?

I have recently stumbled upon a programming language known as F# and it's the first time I ever heard of it! It seems relatively new. If anyone has experience with it, how does it compare with C# and other languages? Is there a chance that a F# tutorial will be made?

Oh, simply curious! I now that there are a BUNCH of programming languages out there, but this one caught my interest. Never heard of it being used before. And I'd take a beginner tutorial for any programming languege no matter how experimental or obsolete just for funsies. :)

[upd: I'm wrong here! see comment by Martin Taylor!] {If I remember right F# can be a kind of a language to (or "for") the Fortran as C# to (for) the C(++).} And it's age is _at_least_ 4 years. And/But why do you need (and why do you ask) for a tutorial if you don't even know anything about that language?!? ☺

Doing online courses/tutorials and watching video essays are what I do for fun! Gives me something relaxing yet productive to do after a day of work as a laborer and makes up for the complete lack of partying I do as a full-time student 😂

Rust and Go are already? ;-) I can suggest you LD language (Ladder diagram)

I at least heard those thrown around here and there! :) I am mostly trying and focus a little more on Java, C#, and Python for the next two years or so. Then I will try my hand at game development! These Sololearn tutorials are great for passively learning other programming languages while out and about though.
