<ronwalf> Actually, my cellphone runs python
<ronwalf> and java, but that's less interesting
<Riastradh> I happen to avoid using x86 completely. I'm using a PPC & a SPARC right now.

<efficxpert> is there anything like the Java isinstance in ocaml?
<efficxpert> i mean instanceof
<Riastradh> No. OCaml's classes exist solely at compile-time; type & class information is gone at run-time. It would be a meaningless operation.
<Riastradh> The object system in general is usually frowned upon, too.

<keenan> does ocaml have lexical scope or dynamic scope?
det has joined #ocaml
<mflux> lexical
<det> dynamic!
<mflux> hm
<mflux> doesn't dynamic mean that the environment (variables) depend on which route the function has been called
<mrsolo> trolling!
<mrsolo> lexical
<keenan> i'm not exactly sure what those mean, i just thought that'd be a fun question to ask
<keenan> i think it means something like, if you say:
<keenan> let a = 7;;
<keenan> let f = fun b -> b + a;;
<keenan> let a = 2;;
<keenan> then f is still going to add 7
<keenan> so that means it has lexical scope, right?
<keenan> in scheme it's the other way around
<keenan> but wait, this says scheme has lexical scope
<keenan> so ocaml must have dynamic scope
<mflux> or, it could be that 'this' says wrong ;)
<mflux> atleast Free On-Line Dictionary of Computing states lexical and dynamic in the way you suggested
<keenan> hmm google to the rescue
<keenan> this might clear it up:
<keenan> kinda makes my head hurt, but in a good way =)
<mrsolo> keeenan: if you haven't read it.. it gives a very clear example about scoping
<keenan> oh sweet, free pdf download
<keenan> lol there's a page with just a lambda on it
<keenan> this guy has style
<mrsolo> it is a very good book
<mrsolo> hopefully you won't abandon c/c++ after reading that :-)
<Banana> hello, people.
