As soon as I saw the author uses OCaml for a class, I immediately knew the analysis will be somewhat superficial. No wonder, remembering my limited understanding when I was studying.

Thank you for your comment because I've been meaning to give OCaml a serious chance for a vary long time.



If you just want to explore a functional language from the ML family to get some familiarity, Haskell might be the better bet.

If you specifically want a strict language and explore the OCaml ecosystem (or you already know Haskell): have fun with OCaml!

I've used both extensively---in addition to Racket, Erlang, Clean, etc, and various imperative languages.
