Hi Brian, Nice to hear from you again. I learnt CAML during my studies. Personally, that's not my cup of tea. While type inference and program proofs are very useful, I just can't enjoy writing functional programs. That may have to do with the fact that most functional programming languages inherit from Lisp syntax... The nearest that I came to a functional language that I wanted to use is Lustre (http://citeseer.nj.nec.com/halbwachs91synchronous.html). If you have on your agenda creating a functional programming language that keeps its distances with the Lisp tree structuration, I am interested. If you are just thinking of extending OCAML, I wouldn't follow you. That is just my opinion... -- Denis. |
