That was the idea. But I'm not a functional programmer (not a programmer by profession at all lol), so I might've done something stupid. Hence the disclaimer. Thanks for confirming.
OCaml certainly isn't a bad language to learn for a non-professional. It's almost painfully sensible and well-engineered, you're far away from hype train nonsense and startup production jank but also not out in the "the purpose of this language is to be beautiful and earn me a PhD" territory, OCaml definitely is a production language.
