How to use this tool?
This free online converter lets you convert code from Groovy to OCaml in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
- Type or paste your Groovy 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 Groovy 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.

Key differences between Groovy and OCaml
Characteristic | Groovy | OCaml |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Groovy has a syntax similar to Java, with additional features like closures and dynamic typing. | OCaml has a syntax that is more functional and expressive, with strong static typing. |
Paradigm | Groovy supports both object-oriented programming and functional programming paradigms. | OCaml is a functional programming language with support for imperative and object-oriented programming. |
Typing | Groovy is dynamically typed, allowing for flexible and concise code. | OCaml is statically typed, providing strong type checking and inference. |
Performance | Groovy is generally slower than statically typed languages like OCaml. | OCaml is known for its performance and efficiency, especially in numerical and scientific computing. |
Libraries and frameworks | Groovy has a wide range of libraries and frameworks available, especially for web development. | OCaml has a smaller ecosystem of libraries and frameworks compared to Groovy, but it is growing. |
Community and support | Groovy has a large and active community with good support and resources available. | OCaml has a smaller but dedicated community with active support and resources. |
Learning curve | Groovy has a relatively low learning curve, especially for developers familiar with Java. | OCaml has a steeper learning curve, especially for developers new to functional programming. |
