How to use this tool?

This free online converter lets you convert code from Lisp to OCaml in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -

  1. Type or paste your Lisp code in the input box.
  2. Click the convert button.
  3. The resulting OCaml code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.

Examples

The following are examples of code conversion from Lisp 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 Lisp and OCaml

CharacteristicLispOCaml
SyntaxLisp uses prefix notation and has a flexible syntax that allows for powerful macro capabilities.OCaml uses infix notation and has a more traditional syntax similar to other programming languages.
ParadigmLisp is a multi-paradigm language that supports functional programming, procedural programming, and object-oriented programming.OCaml is a multi-paradigm language that supports functional programming and imperative programming.
TypingLisp is dynamically typed, meaning that variable types are determined at runtime.OCaml is statically typed, meaning that variable types are checked at compile-time.
PerformanceLisp is generally considered to have good performance, especially for certain types of applications such as symbolic processing.OCaml is known for its strong performance, especially in terms of execution speed and memory usage.
Libraries and frameworksLisp has a rich ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, although it may not have as many options as some other languages.OCaml has a growing ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, with a focus on functional programming and formal verification.
Community and supportLisp has a dedicated community of users and enthusiasts, with active online forums and resources.OCaml has a smaller but passionate community, with active development and support from the OCaml Consortium.
Learning curveLisp has a steep learning curve due to its unique syntax and powerful features, but it can be rewarding for those who invest the time to learn it.OCaml has a moderate learning curve, especially for programmers familiar with other statically typed languages.
