To clone this repo, just open a terminal on your windows or linux machine and do

git clone https://github.com/fgolemo/course-2017-ocaml-trees.git

(given that you have git installed)

You can then find the files for the individual exercises number in the root folder. So the code for exercise 9 is called 9-(..).ml and so on. Be careful though, because this numbering might change as we are updating the syllabus (POLY).

To compile an individual file, you just run in a terminal

ocamlbuild FILENAME.native

but FILENAME without .ml. So for example

ocamlbuild 8-insertionsort.native

The .native ending is important. After the compilation was successful (yes, you will get warnings about the bad filename), you can execute the file like this:

./FILENAME.native

or in our example

./8-insertionsort.native

Each file contains a little example to try the function. If you actually play around with the algorithms, I recommend that you install utop and start up an interactive session (just open a terminal, type in utop and hit enter). There you can copy&paste the code from the exercises and try them out more interactively.
