What compiles SML on windows?
Compiling SML on Windows is different because Windows does not come with a built-in SML compiler like many other operating systems do. This means you will need to install a separate compiler and follow different steps to compile your code.
The most commonly used compiler for SML on Windows is called "MLton". It is a fast and efficient compiler that is easy to install and use.
Yes, in addition to the compiler, you will also need a text editor to write your SML code and a command line interface to run the compiler. Some popular options for text editors include Notepad++ and Visual Studio Code, and the command line interface can be accessed through the Windows Command Prompt.
Yes, there are a few specific steps you will need to follow. These include downloading and installing the compiler, setting up your environment variables, creating a directory for your SML files, and using the command line to compile and run your code. A detailed guide can be found in the "Compiling SML on Windows: A Guide" document.
Yes, you can. As long as you have the same version of the SML compiler installed, your code should compile and run on Windows without any issues. However, it is always a good idea to test your code on the specific operating system you plan to use it on to ensure compatibility.
