| Subject: | [Caml-list] Caml historical question |
OK Caml history buffs, I have a question which arose during my proofreading of a chapter of the forthcoming bestseller "Developing Applications with Objective Caml" (Stephen King, watch out!). In the current translation, it is mentioned that "fun" is a legacy of older versions of Caml and it is insinuated that the "fun" form is somehow deprecated in favor of fun. What's the straight dope? I note that in the hypermodern Revised syntax, which I happen to like, it is actually "function" which is suppressed, and fun lives on. -- Brian ------------------- Bug reports: http://caml.inria.fr/bin/caml-bugs FAQ: http://caml.inria.fr/FAQ/ To unsubscribe, mail caml-list-request@inria.fr Archives: http://caml.inria.fr
