I.e. nothing for the real programmer. Not really sexy. If this is the case, I wonder why there are so many instructional texts available for SML (a couple dozen probably). Quite a few for Haskell as well. Only one (Cousineau & Mauny) for OCaml. Rather disappointing since OCaml seems more promising than any of these. ===== Regards, Graham http://mobile.yahoo.com.au - Yahoo!
