SML is great, but I always suggest OCaml. Still my favourite language that I never get to write these days!


For practical programming I'd probably agree, but if the point is to learn a non-Algol way of thinking then I think SML is a better way to go; OCaml makes it easier to write imperative-style code, for better and for worse.


Yeah that's a fair point!
