Because I really like OCaml, its very easy to talk to C code with it. Hmm, for me OCaml provides 1) Type safety 2) Native code speed 3) No C style memory issues, its a garbage collected language 4) You can compile OCaml code as a C library, then call it from C. OCaml in general has great C/Objective-C/C++ interoperability. 5) Predictable performance, no head scratchers. 6) Functional programming if I want to do that.

In your point 4) I assume you are referring to this tool? https://github.com/ocaml-bytes/ocamlcc https://github.com/ocaml-bytes/ocamlcc

  No, its a normal feature of the ocaml compilers. I never saw that tool before your post.

    That's very interesting, thanks. Now I'm quite tempted to study OCaml.
