You don't pass arguments like you do in C or Java.  In those languages you 
might do:

  somefunction(arg1, arg2, arg3)

In OCaml, you do:

  somefunction arg1 arg2 arg3

In OCaml, "(arg1, arg2, arg3)" means create a 3-tuple.  "somefunction(arg1, 
arg2, arg3)" is interpreted as make a 3-tuple and call "somefunction" on that 
tuple.

You code, therefore, should look like this:


  let print_logic a b =
    Printf.printf "a and b is %B\n" (a && b);
    Printf.printf "a or b is %B\n" (a || b);
    Printf.printf "not a is %B\n" (not a)
  ;;

  print_logic true false;;
