Hi OCamlers,
We at Seoul National University are changing our programming curricula
so that junior CS students will be trained to build rather big
softwares. After some discussions we decided to use C++ :-(
Is there any good idea on nudging(or even forcing) programming in C++
become more like programming in OCaml? I want our students to enjoy the
merits of high-level, higher-order & typed programming language in this
class even in C++. Would it be possible?
Maybe I need to build some layer of libraries...
I'd like to hear, if any, more interesting ideas or your experience in
this context.
All the best,
-Kwang

My recommendation is to commit fully to the new C++11 standard, which has a
number of functional features, including closures. These are now supported
by recent C++ compilers.

Maybe the cppml project will help you:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/cppml/
The main developer said this version is a bit out of date but is willing to
push a new release if there's interest.

It's deep sorrow.
Without your course, there may be no chance to hit the name "OCaml" in South Korea.
