<flia> Would the best way to start learning ocaml without previous experience with functional languages be to start with the o'reilly book? or one of the 'tutorials' from the tutorial page?
<smkl> the book is probably best, but if perhaps it's also useful to read the first chapters of the manual

<flia> ah ok, thanks
<flia> is the language hard to pick up?
<flia> i've extensive experience with imperative languages
<smkl> no, ocaml has imperative and object-oriented features too, so you can learn functional features and style while programming
<flia> yeah, i've been dubbing between haskell and ocaml
<flia> and it was one of the reasons that i chose for ocaml
<flia> and also the fact, that the ocaml compiler seems to compile very efficient =)
