Subject: [Caml-list] explicit polymorphic type annotation
Date: Thu, 31 Mar 2016 14:06:36 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <56FD12CC.20509@libertysurf.fr> (raw)
Hi,
I don't know how to handle this, and can not find how to do it in the
manual. I would like "func" to be polymorphic :
let f func =
Printf.printf "%i\n%!" (func (1,2));
Printf.printf "%f\n%!" (func (1.,2.));;
f fst;;
f snd;;
=>
Characters 85-87:
Printf.printf "%f\n%!" (func (1.,2.));;
^^
Error: This expression has type float but an expression was expected of
type int
let f (func:('a. 'a * 'a -> 'a)) =
Printf.printf "%i\n%!" (func (1,2));
Printf.printf "%f\n%!" (func (1.,2.));;
f fst;;
f snd;;
=>
Characters 15-16:
let f (func:('a. 'a * 'a -> 'a)) =
^
Error: Syntax error: type expected.
Could someone show me how to handle this ?
Also, I did not find any relevant chapter in ocaml.org or ocaml
reference manual to explain how to do. Any pointers ?
Best regards
