Hmm.. this OCaml thing actually looks very good.  I did like Miranda back in
first year uni (these days they now teach Haskell on that same course).  But
I hated needing a "seq" function to fudge procedural stuff, not having any
variables and the **** notation.  OCaml seems to have solved all this stuff,
and added OO and probably more!
