Please explain why. > > I think he needs floats, not ints... OOOps, read too fast. If you need a selected number of routines using 32 bits floats, implement them in C and interface them to OCaml. But this could be slow depending of what you want to do -- i.e. maybe you want to use OCaml for higher level stuff? Could you please provide more details ?
