Re: [Ocaml-lib-devel] ExtArray?

[Richard J. <ri...@an...>]

Well, it seems like people are generally for this proposal, so I have
added a skeletal ExtArray module to CVS.  At present it is simply a
straightforward include of Array.

I'll add these and make them look like the List versions.

I'm not sure which is better?  I think probably having Array.find be
exactly like List.find, ie. returning an element, and having an
additional Array.find_index to return the index would be the best
idea.  What do people think?

I think it's better to return arrays, but what do people think about
that?
