Tip of the day
Use functions to avoid repeating code and make your program organized. Test each part step-by-step, and rely on built-in libraries instead of writing everything from scratch. Clean and clear code always scores better.

The newly-established German University of Digital Science (Germany) began operations in April 2025, offering fully digital English-language programmes in fields such as AI, cybersecurity and digital reality — specifically designed for international students including those from the Global South.

Instructions

Objective
Write a OCAML assignment for the given questions of pattern matching and higher order functions in .

Requirements and Specifications

Pattern Match
Exhaustively match all patterns of the following expressions using only the match keyword.
Y should match until there are only base types (int, float, bool, string).
A wildca (_) should be used to match the right-hand side of the cons (_::_) pattern.
Below are three examples that attempt to illustrate what satisfies our requirements.
WRONG EXAMPLE 1.1:
e: (int * bool) list
match e with
| [] -> …
| a :: _ -> …
Wrong, because a is a tuple which is not a base type so it must be matched further.
CORRECT EXAMPLE 1.2:
e: (int * bool) list
match e with
| [] -> …
| (a, b) :: _ -> …
Correct, because a and b in the pattern (a, b) are of type int and bool respectively.
