The Caml Hump: Applications written in Caml :: Toys - Examples

Mini Gosix is a small program that allows you to play Gosix board game (by Pierre Canuel) against a computer opponent. There are selectable difficulty levels and GUI. Program is written in OCaml using TK widgets.

mltree is similar to the unix command line utility 'tree', but with some differences.

Binkohp is a little game inspired by the Mah-jong and extended to 3D.

Redditwatcher is an Ocaml program that follows the evolution of the scores (up and downvotes, number of comments) of stories appearing on Reddit. Typically, it takes the 50 newest stories and samples their scores at reasonable intervals, writing results into little marshalled files that can be converted to gnuplottable and R-loadable files.

An OCaml program that outputs the set of N-edged graphs (polynema) to a standard .dot file.

The Game of Life. Features : zoom in/out capability, run at different speeds or by steps, drag the view even when it runs, shapes, colours, grids selections, support standard life file format for input / output, can show next state information with colours or shapes, undo / redo.

sk' is intended to allow experimentation with combinatory logic.

An experimental ray tracer using LablGL.

This is a toy implementation of Zope's TAL (Template Attribute Language) for OCaml, conveniently named 'Octal'. It is built on top of Camlp4 and Xml-Light. The purpose of TAL is to have a template that is a valid XML or HTML document that already renders like the resulting document.

A very serious Mandelbrot renderer. The program is 35 lines of OCaml and renders using OpenGL.

A solver for the Sudoku game.

A little ray tracer in OCaml to test its viability for the shootout.

A little OCaml program to generate random 2D mazes, render them using OpenGL and generate PostScript output.

Exceedingly simple, lightweight, image viewer, using lablgtk2.

A little tool for looking up entries from /etc/services.

An OCaml GPL software aimed to explore aspects of the dominoes game.

An Objective Caml implementation of the continuation-passing-style output from Olivier Danvy's paper Functional Unparsing.

A library containing functions to read or write mp3 tags.

Solves the Pentaminos puzzle.

Tony is a simple XML parser and pretty printer for Objective Caml. While you would most likely use it as a library it comes for demonstration purposes as an application. Tony reads an XML file and pretty prints it nicely. The parser is implemented using Lex and Yacc, the pretty printer using Philip Wadler's pretty-printing algebra. Today more complete (and complex) XML parsers for OCaml exist; Tony is still useful if you want to cover the basic case.
