jemfinch` changed the topic of #ocaml to: nob: it's not an option keyword. It's a datatype. 'a option. It can be either "None" or "Some data" -- it represents either data that's not there (None) or data that's there (Some data)

hey there, peeps
<Taaus>
Hello.
<xenwryla>
I've got a ? about ocaml, this a good place to ask?
<Taaus>
I guess it is... :)
<xenwryla>
well, I'm wondering about the rapid prototyping capabilities of ocaml, specifically the ability to modify a running program as in lisp
<Taaus>
Well, there's the interactive toplevel loop...
<xenwryla>
but I take it finished programs will be either run from byte or native compiled code where its not possible
<Taaus>
Everything is compiled.. Even in the toplevel loop (It's compiled on-the-fly).
<xenwryla>
hmm
<xenwryla>
do you know what I speak of in lisp?
<Taaus>
Not really... I'm allergic to parentheses ;)
<xenwryla>
hehe
<xenwryla>
one can essentially hotpatch a running image
<Taaus>
Ah.
<xenwryla>
no such luck in ocaml?
<Taaus>
I doubt it...
<Taaus>
But I'm not an O'Caml guru :)
<xenwryla>
well thanks for your time
