<zak> how compatible is F# with real ocaml?
<m3ga> zak: this came up on the main ocaml mailing list some time in the last month or so. try searching the archives or ocaml weekly news.
<zak> ok, thanks
<LeCamarade> zak: It is sufficiently-compatible.
<LeCamarade> There will be no surprises, really. I am an OCaml coder doing F# (right now). :o)
<zak> if i write a fairly large program in ocaml, will i probably be able to port it to F# without too much work?
<LeCamarade> zak: Would you be doing OCaml on Unix?
<LeCamarade> Or Windows (the land of F#)?
<rwmjones> zak, apparently there is a common subset, but it doesn't include many major features (in particular, objects)
<zak> OCaml on unix, and F# for windows port
<zak> ahh
<zak> i thought objects might be quite different..
<LeCamarade> zak: You may need to be intimately connected to .NET while doing something that may be used on .NET. For example.
<LeCamarade> You may need to avoid sockets via unix module - not portable.
<zak> yeah i'm willing to have seperate backends for things like that.. but hmm.. i'm pretty lost without being able to use objects
joshcryer has quit [Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)]
<zak> is it any slower to have a function on an object than a normal function outside of it that acts on it?
<LeCamarade> zak: Objects ... ah, I must confess I don't use them outside .NET, frankly. For me, the O on OCaml only comes in when I'm doing .NET.

<derRichard> hi
<derRichard> how can i store a string like "foobar" into a string which was created like that one "let s = String.create 64"?
kelaouchi has quit [Remote closed the connection]
<haelix> derRichard: you're trying to mutate the content of the string ?
<derRichard> yes
<derRichard> i know how to store a single char but i need more
pants1 has quit [Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)]
<haelix> well
<haelix> first I was shocked to learn this could be done :)
<haelix> but, browsing through String.*** documentation
<haelix> it seems you have to roll your own :(
<haelix> oh, wait: String.blit !!
<derRichard> oh, nice :)
<derRichard> i'll test it
<haelix> oh
<haelix> I'm sure it works :)
<derRichard> thanks :)

Jessehk has joined #ocaml
<Jessehk> I wrote a basic text-based calculator in Ocaml. Everything works great, but I am struggling to think of a way to read in Nums _and_ floating point numbers.
<Jessehk> Ie, I read in a line of text, and when I find a number, I convert it using num_of_string.
<Jessehk> However, is there any way to handle floating point?
