Subject: [Caml-list] Checking support for string concatenation by OCaml
Date: Tue, 21 Nov 2017 17:10:14 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <66db11ce-9b53-918e-addb-6bcc727a6464@users.sourceforge.net> (raw)

Hello,

The programming language “OCaml” supports the concatenation of strings by
a few interfaces.

Two of them like “Printf.sprintf” and “String.concat” are documented to some degree.
I wonder about the current situation around the operator “^”.

* Is a more useful explanation missing in the official OCaml manual?
  https://caml.inria.fr/pub/docs/manual-ocaml/coreexamples.html#sec9
  https://caml.inria.fr/pub/docs/manual-ocaml/lex.html#sec82

* It is mentioned in the section “Optional Arguments” of the book “Real World OCaml”.
  https://realworldocaml.org/v1/en/html/variables-and-functions.html#idm181619803616

* Syntax comparison

Regards,
Markus
