Have to agree. There was no problem at all writing a simple and blazingly fast
FPS in OCaml. It's been done a few times I seem to remember. Great compiler!

It took two hours to make a decent Wari in Python. But now I'm deep into Lua
scripting. It's used by Bioware, Lucasarts and others. Looks like Algol, works
like a FP.
