Examples

The following are examples of code conversion from OCaml to Erlang 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.

OCaml Code:

Erlang Code:

Example 2 - Even or Odd

A well commented function to check if a number if odd or even.

Differences

The following are some key differences between OCaml and Erlang.

Characteristic	OCaml	Erlang
Syntax	OCaml has a syntax that is similar to other functional programming languages, with a strong emphasis on pattern matching and immutability.	Erlang has a unique syntax that is based on Prolog, with a focus on message passing and concurrency.
Paradigm	OCaml is a multi-paradigm language that supports functional, imperative, and object-oriented programming.	Erlang is a concurrent, functional programming language that is designed for building scalable and fault-tolerant systems.
Typing	OCaml has a strong static type system that helps catch errors at compile-time.	Erlang has a dynamic type system that allows for flexible and dynamic programming.
Performance	OCaml is known for its high performance and efficient execution.	Erlang is optimized for concurrency and fault-tolerance, but may not have the same level of raw performance as OCaml.
Libraries and frameworks	OCaml has a growing ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, although it may not have as many options as more popular languages.	Erlang has a rich set of libraries and frameworks that are specifically designed for building distributed and fault-tolerant systems.
Community and support	OCaml has a smaller but dedicated community, with active support from the OCaml Software Foundation.	Erlang has a strong community and is supported by Ericsson, the company that originally developed the language.
Learning curve	OCaml has a moderate learning curve, especially for developers familiar with functional programming concepts.	Erlang has a relatively steep learning curve due to its unique syntax and concurrency-oriented design.
