Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install libocplib-endian-ocaml on Kali Linux.

What is libocplib-endian-ocaml

libocplib-endian-ocaml is:

Optimised functions to read and write int16/32/64 from strings, bytes and bigarrays, based on primitives added in version 4.01.

The library implements three modules:

  • EndianString works directly on strings, and provides submodules BigEndian and LittleEndian, with their unsafe counter-parts;
  • EndianBytes works directly on bytes, and provides submodules BigEndian and LittleEndian, with their unsafe counter-parts;
  • EndianBigstring works on bigstrings (Bigarrays of chars), and provides submodules BigEndian and LittleEndian, with their unsafe counter-parts.

This package contains the runtime files.
