Recently I have been talking to quite a few people on IRC (#tpu on freenode.net) about a programming language called "ML." Alot of them preffered it over C and told me to try it out. They gave me some links, and it looks pretty intresting so far (I'm writing my first program as we speak), but I'd like to know if anyone used it and if they liked it.

An SML book to anyone's that's intrested (PDF format) http://www-2.cs.cmu.edu/~rwh/smlbook/offline.pdf

Strange. I just very briefly skimmed over a little of the PDF and I would have to say I've never seen anything like it.  I can see a slight hint of Pascal, a slight hint of Basic, not a single hint of C and the rest appears to be some space alien language.  I made a commitment to myself long ago that I would never use another language that used the keyword "let".    If you seriously make an attempt to learn it make sure you give us a report of what you think.

i'll be stickin with C++ fer now. After i leran C++, C, Perl, Fortran, Assembly, Python, Basic, Java, PHP, asp(just jokin!!), then maybe i will try to learn this.

Don't forget Pascal, Ada and ASM.
