This directory contains some examples of Caml programs. The examples can either be compiled and executed as standalone programs (just type "make" in the subdirectory), or run interactively under "camllight" (the graphics programs must be run under "camlgraph"), by executing include "loadall";; in the appropriate directory. Examples marked (*) are taken from the book ``Le langage Caml'', by Pierre Weis and Xavier Leroy (InterEditions, 1993). Messages and identifiers are in French and contain accented letters (ISO 8859-1 encoding). You'll need an 8-bit clean system to read them. Examples marked (G) assume installed the contrib/libgraph library. basics: Three all-time favorites: Fibonacci, Eratosthene's sieve, and the Unix "wc" utility. asl: This is the implementation of A Small Language, as described in part 3 of ``Functional Programming using Caml Light'', by Michel Mauny. calc: This is a simple desk calculator that illustrates the use of camllex and camlyacc. colwheel: (G) The "color wheel" (color space in HSV coordinates). Needs at least 256 colors to look good. compress: (*) File compression and decompression (Huffman). demonstr: (*) Tautology checker. dimens: Examples of Caml-Light with dimensions. These ones are not compiled by the general make. reltest : compile with camlc -o reltest reltest.ml It gives energy of a particle from its mass and speed (according to the relativity theory) electest : to load in the toplevel with load "electest.ml";; It computes the transfer function of an electronic circuit. docteur: (*) A (French-speaking) clone of Eliza. grep: (*) Regular expressions and automata. hanoi: (*) Animated towers of Hanoi. kb: The Knuth-Bendix completion procedure for rewriting systems. Taken from some course notes by Gerard Huet. minicaml: (*) An interpreter and typechecker for a subset of Caml. minilogo: (*) (G) An interpreter for a small language with turtle graphics. pascal: (*) An interpreter and compiler for a subset of Pascal. The compiler generates code for the "picomach" program. picomach: (*) An assembler and simulator for a RISC processor. showsort: (G) Graphic animation of sorting algorithms. spirals: (G) Explore a family of flashy curves. (Use spir on a color screen and spir-bw on a black and white screen.) config: This directory does not contain an example, but configuration files used to generate the Makefiles.
