## ocaml-4.03.0p2 – ML language with complete class-based objective system

## Description

    Objective Caml is an implementation of the ML language, based on
    the Caml Light dialect extended with a complete class-based object system
    and a powerful module system in the style of Standard ML.

    Objective Caml comprises two compilers. One generates bytecode
    which is then interpreted by a C program. This compiler runs quickly,
    generates compact code with moderate memory requirements, and is
    portable to essentially any 32 or 64 bit Unix platform. Performance of
    generated programs is quite good for a bytecoded implementation:
    almost twice as fast as Caml Light 0.7. This compiler can be used
    either as a standalone, batch-oriented compiler that produces
    standalone programs, or as an interactive, toplevel-based system.

    The other compiler generates high-performance native code for a number
    of processors. Compilation takes longer and generates bigger code, but
    the generated programs deliver excellent performance (better than
    Standard ML of New Jersey 1.08 on our tests), while retaining the
    moderate memory requirements of the bytecode compiler.
