Unix System Programming in OCaml
by Xavier Leroy, Didier Remy
2011
Number of pages: 143
Description:
This document is an introductory course on Unix system programming, with an emphasis on communications between processes. The main novelty of this work is the use of the OCaml language, a dialect of the ML language, instead of the C language that is customary in systems programming. This gives an unusual perspective on systems programming and on the ML language.
