    Interesting! What are Bonsai's dependencies? I use OCaml but - so far - none of Janestreets libraries etc.

    It's there, but yes the home page is very confusing. I lost interest very fast.

    Weak arguments in the article with badly chosen examples. If one wanted to criticize OCaml syntax, the need for .mli-files (with different syntax for function signatures) and the r…

    Rather for the classic 3x3x3 cube. I played with it in the 80ies, but never understood the concepts behind it.

    Are there recommendable sources on how to learn solving/the concepts of a classic cube?

    Perhaps a helpful addition: I collected my change money over several years (about 9kg in total, mostly lower valued coins, since the higher values can be spent easily). After excha…

    Yes, that was my first thought too. The concept is similar. Get rid if the source-files and put every function/method in its own "editor". However, as far as I remember navigation …

    I'm using Sublime Text since shortly before 2.0 and Sublime Merge since day one. Yet, I'm slowly losing interest in ST because of lacking language integrations and probably won't d…

    They may work as expected (and probably will), but they are not covered by the proof.

    Yes, I know, I mentioned the extraction. My question was whether it can help detecting translation errors from the first step.

    Comment #40364634

    In case of coq-to-ocaml: is it feasible to do an extraction to OCaml on the translated code and compare it with the original?

    I'm not fluent in Swift and async, but the line: for try await byte in bytes { ... } for me reads like the time/delta is determined for every single byte received over the network.…

    That was also my first thought after looking at the examples.

    I'm confused by this blog-post. In the table: what is the reg-ex pattern tested and against which input?
