Comment on A brief introduction to OCaml

Comments

im quite amazed that ocaml seems to be on a rise (judging from how often i've recently seen it on here). it reminds me of the time i started to dig into it more than a decade ago when mldonkey [0] was a thing.

also, this is the way to briefly introduce a programmer to a new language. just show the commented syntax. i just hate reading all the prefaces and texts of language manuals. it's good they're there but i'm just loosing interest too quickly if you don't show me code.
