Right. Also, I should mention that a high-performance toplevel, combined with new libraries like OCaml-R, would essentially make OCaml a competitor to Matlab and R. This would really expand OCaml's scope to an important area. --0022152d6f59604bc304956c1a92 Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
