Learning OCaml (was: "Learn one new language every year"? Yeah, right.)

That sounds interesting. I've been thinking about making OCaml my next language (mostly because of the mix of functional programming and existing libraries).

Are there any books/sites/resources would you recommend I start with?

I learned OCaml off this: http://www.cs.caltech.edu/courses/cs134/cs134b/book.pdf. There are a few other tutorials listed at http://caml.inria.fr/tutorials-eng.html. Now you just have to put up with the translated-from-French error messages it gives you :) "There is no shame in being self-taught, only in not trying to learn in the first place." -- Atrus, Myst: The Book of D'ni.

I've been making my way through an online tutorial OCaml for C, C++, Perl, and Java Programmers and have been happy with that. elusion : http://matt.diephouse.com	[reply]
