Assignment 1: OCaml Basics (2%)🔗

Due: September 14, 11:59PM

The goal of this assignment is to gain practice programming in OCaml. You will write a number of small functions, each specified by a type signature, a description, and a small set of tests.

Your Repository🔗

A private GitLab repository has already been created for you; you do not need to create one. Its name is built from your UMD directory ID:

https://gitlab.cs.umd.edu/cmsc330-mamat/fall2026/student-repos/p1/ocaml-basics-<directory-id>

For example, if your directory ID is alice1:

https://gitlab.cs.umd.edu/cmsc330-mamat/fall2026/student-repos/p1/ocaml-basics-alice1

You can also find it by signing in to gitlab.cs.umd.edu, where the project will be listed among your projects. Clone it with:

mkdir -p ~/cmsc330

cd ~/cmsc330

git clone git@gitlab.cs.umd.edu:cmsc330-mamat/fall2026/student-repos/p1/ocaml-basics-<directory-id>.git

If you have not set up your GitLab account and SSH key yet, do that first; see Software.

Getting Help🔗

If you cannot see your repository, if the repository listed on Piazza is wrong, or if you get a permission error when cloning, post on Piazza or come to office hours. Do this as soon as you notice the problem: extension requests caused by not being able to obtain the assignment will be denied.
