Next Priority for OCaml: https://discuss.ocaml.org/t/next-priority-for-ocaml/12561/9 ...
Algorithms
## Map The idea of the map function is that you can pass it a function and a list, and it will return to you the result of the function for every element in the list: ```ocaml let cb_function -> print_endline let mapped_list = map cb_function ["a", "b", ...
Complex Data
## Lists OCaml lists are written inside of square brackets `[ ]`. The empty list contains no elements, and is a list of type `'a` or "alpha". That's because we can't infer the elements if they don't exist yet. ```ocaml [ ];; - : 'a list = [] ``` However ...
Conditionals
## If Statement Pretty standard stuff, looks like this: ```ocaml if 3110 > 2110 then "foo" else "bar" ``` Keep in mind strings are evaluated [lexicographically](https://www.dictionary.com/browse/lexicographically), which means alphabetical order ```ocaml ...

Exceptions
An exception is an event that occurs during the execution of a program that disrupts the normal flow of the program's instructions. We can define exceptions in OCaml like so: ```ocaml exception OhNo of string OhNo "oops" - : exn = OhNo "oops" ``` Here,...
Expressions
## Expressions #### Syntax #### Semantics - Type-checking rules (*static semantics*): produce a type, or fail with an error message - Evaluation rules (*dynamic semantics*): produce a *value* or exception or infinite loop ## Values A value is an expressi...
Functions
## Anonymous Functions This is the most basic kind of function: ```ocaml (fun x -> x + 1); - : int -> int = <fun> ``` `int -> int` means that the function takes an integer as a parameter, and returns an integer as well. In OCaml, function application i...
Modules
## Structures You can scope code to a given namespace like this: ```ocaml module Thing = struct let awesome_add_one x -> x + 1 end ``` Which can then be referenced like so: ```ocaml Thing.awesome_add_one 1 (* outputs: 2 *) ``` Basically, this is usefu...

Operators
## Binary Operators If you wrap a binary operator in parenthesis, it becomes a function: ```ocaml 1 + 2;; (* the same as *) (+) 1 2;; (* However this can be bad because OCaml can get it confused with comments when you use multiplication. So it should be ...
Type Inference and Annotation
