How to use this tool?
This free online converter lets you convert code from C++ to OCaml in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
- Type or paste your C++ code in the input box.
- Click the convert button.
- The resulting OCaml code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.
Examples
The following are examples of code conversion from C++ to OCaml using this converter. Note that you may not always get the same code since it is generated by an AI language model which is not 100% deterministic and gets updated from time to time.
Example 1 - Is String Palindrome
Program that checks if a string is a palindrome or not.
C++
OCaml
Example 2 - Even or Odd
A well commented function to check if a number if odd or even.
C++
OCaml
Key differences between C++ and OCaml
Characteristic | C++ | OCaml |
---|---|---|
Syntax | C++ has a syntax similar to C with additional features like classes and objects. | OCaml has a syntax that is more functional and expressive compared to C++. |
Paradigm | C++ supports both procedural and object-oriented programming paradigms. | OCaml is a multi-paradigm language that supports functional, imperative, and object-oriented programming. |
Typing | C++ is a statically typed language with support for both static and dynamic polymorphism. | OCaml is a statically typed language with type inference and strong type checking. |
Performance | C++ is known for its high performance and efficiency, allowing low-level memory manipulation. | OCaml provides good performance for most applications, but may not be as efficient as C++ for certain low-level tasks. |
Libraries and frameworks | C++ has a wide range of libraries and frameworks available, including Boost, Qt, and STL. | OCaml has a smaller ecosystem of libraries and frameworks compared to C++, but still offers useful tools like Jane Street Core and Lwt. |
Community and support | C++ has a large and active community with extensive documentation and support resources. | OCaml has a smaller community compared to C++, but still has dedicated users and active development. |
Learning curve | C++ has a steep learning curve due to its complex syntax and extensive features. | OCaml has a moderate learning curve, especially for programmers familiar with functional programming concepts. |
