The answer here is the same as for flip
:-). Function composition isn’t defined in the OCaml standard library. In this case, it isn’t something I miss once in a while, I miss it all the time.
The OCaml Batteries Included project defines function composition (in the order you give) using the operator -|
in the BatStd
module. As lukstafi points out (see below), this operator will apparently change to %
in a future release of Batteries. (I’ve verified this in their source tree.)
As far as I can see, the Jane Street Core project doesn’t define a function composition operator. It defines a function compose
in the Fn
module.
