| Subject: | OCaml infix function-composition |
Dear caml-list, We are in the process of converting our Caml code into OCaml, and have a problem choosing an infix syntax for function composition (right to left, as in (fun f g x -> f (g x))). Previously we used "o" for this, but I believe we cannot make "o" an infix operator in OCaml, nor ".", which was our second choice. We are considering "<<" and "$" now. What do other OCaml people use for function composition? Is there a standard emerging? If we choose an operator, how can we be sure that our selection won't be upset by the next version of OCaml?
