The F#orce Awakens
summary
Parses seven Star Wars screenplays with active patterns in F#, resolves OCR name quirks, and augments missing silent characters (R2‑D2, Chewbacca) by scaling mentions; uses the Star Wars REST API and builds an F# wrapper with JSON and HTML type providers; computes network metrics (character counts: originals ~20, Episode 7 = 27), density and clustering (Episodes 1–2 show lowest density/clustering), and betweenness centrality (Darth Vader ranks highest overall; in Episode 7 degree peaks at a resistance pilot while Finn/Kylo rise by betweenness); visual output is an interactive Fable -> d3 visualization and a Neo4j demo.
