Data structures are immutable by convention only #2

Currently the F# version uses arrays in the grid data structure

Arrays aren't immutable, however the code does avoid mutation and assumes no mutations at the moment

It would be good to see if we could use an ImmutableArray: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/dotnet/archive/2013/06/24/please-welcome-immutablearray.aspx

At the moment I think this bug prevents us from even considering using that library: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14017219/pre-release-collections-immutable
