'An invaluable guide to effective OCaml programming! With extended and updated coverage of key libraries and tools, it covers the language concepts and will teach you not only how to program in OCaml, but also how to develop efficient systems applications in this language.' Xavier Leroy, College de France and INRIA 'OCaml is widely known as an elegant language based on cutting-edge ideas. But this book focuses on use of OCaml as a powerful tool for the software industry. Using a series of hands-on examples, it shows the reader how to use advanced features from the OCaml ecosystem (types, modules, testing frameworks, libraries, package management, build tools, etc.) to solve practical problems. Real World OCaml is my go-to reference for learning how to develop real-world software systems in OCaml.' Nate Foster, Cornell University
