Hello, I'm a bit confused regarding let bindings and nonmutable vals in
objects. Are there any difference between the classes a and b? or are they
equivalent?

Like this:

class a fd =
  let is = in_channel_of_descr fd in
  object
  .
  .
  Use is somewhere
  .
  .
  end;;

class b fd =
  object
    val is = in_channel_of_descr fd
    .
    .
    Use is somewhere
    .
    .
    end;;

TIA!
	-Richard
