F# Not Working After Visual Studio Update (FSC OK)

deanking

I am unable to run the following example:

// https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualfsharpdocs/conceptual/array.distinct['t]-function-[fsharp]#example

module lperror = 

    open System

    let binary n =
        let rec generateBinary n =
            if (n / 2 = 0) then [n]
            else (n % 2) :: generateBinary (n / 2)
        generateBinary n |> List.rev |> Array.ofList

    printfn "%A" (binary 1024)

    let resultArray = Array.distinct (binary 1024)
    printfn "%A" resultArray

    // Expected Output
    // [|1; 0; 0; 0; 0; 0; 0; 0; 0; 0; 0|]
    // [|1; 0|]

LinqPad generates the following error message:
"Cannot execute text selection: The value, constructor, namespace or type 'distinct' is not defined (using built-in F# compiler)"

What am I missing?

Try the 5.28.05 beta:

If it still doesn't work, try adding a reference to the latest version of FSharp.Core.dll (which contains the .distinct method).

@JoeAlbahari. Thanks - the Beta worked.
