Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install ocaml on Rocky Linux 8.
What is ocaml
OCaml is a high-level, strongly-typed, functional and object-oriented programming language from the ML family of languages. This package comprises two batch compilers (a fast bytecode compiler and an optimizing native-code compiler), an interactive toplevel system, parsing tools (Lex,Yacc), a replay debugger, a documentation generator, and a comprehensive library.
We can use yum or dnf to install ocaml on Rocky Linux 8. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install ocaml.
