  • standard ml — (language)   (SML) Originally an attempt by Robin Milner <[email protected]> ca. 1984 to unify the dialects of ML, SML has evolved into a robust general-purpose language. Later versions have been maintained by D. B. MacQueen, Lal George <[email protected]>, and J. H. Reppy <[email protected]> at AT&T, and A. W. Appel <[email protected]>. SML is functional, with imperative programming features. It is environment based and strict. It adds to ML the call-by-pattern of Hope, recursive data types, reference types, typed exceptions, and modules. (The "core" language excludes the modules). Standard ML is polymorphically typed and its module system supports flexible yet secure large-scale programming.
