I realize that this is how it works, but I don't understand why it
should work this way. AFAIK elsewhere in ocaml "int * int" always
refers to a tuple.
Almost, but not quite:
# let int = 2;;
val int : int = 2
# int * int;;
- : int = 4
Seriously, it's only an ergonomy problem in the syntax of type
definitions.
Some better alternatives would be:
type testme = Foo (int, int);;
or, if you like keyword-oriented syntax:
type testme = Foo of int and int;;
But in any case, it's way too late to fix this problem now, so we have
to
live with it, at least in the classic syntax.
