'''Objective Caml''' (OCaml) is the main implementation of the [[Caml]] [[programming language]], created by Xavier Leroy, Jérôme Vouillon, Damien Doligez, Didier Rémy and others in 1996. OCaml is an open source project managed and principally maintained by INRIA. |
|||
OCaml extends the core Caml language with object-oriented constructs. |
|||
OCaml's toolset includes an interactive toplevel interpreter, a bytecode compiler, and an optimizing native code compiler. It has a large standard library that makes it useful for many of the same applications as [[Python]] or [[Perl]], as well as robust modular and [[object-oriented programming]] constructs that make it applicable for large-scale software engineering. |
|||
OCaml is the successor to [[Caml Light]]. The acronym CAML originally stood for Categorical Abstract Machine Language, although OCaml abandons this abstract machine. |
