OCaml is used, for instance, as a main language in Jane Street which is a top prop trading firm. They also are the main sponsors of the language and contribute a lot to the compiler, but that doesn't invalidate the point.
- eru 6y agoYes. We also used OCaml at Bloomberg quite a bit. (And they are still using it, but I'm not there anymore.) But there's not that much more in the commercial OCaml world. Haskell has actually a bit of a broader adoption. The open source library situation is also better. (For the record, I like both OCaml and Haskell. And Janestreet are doing a great job. And commercial and open source adoption are important. But they are not the end to every discussion.)
