The &amp;quot;binding operators&amp;quot; are like OCaml&amp;#x27;s version of Haskell&amp;#x27;s do-notation, but IMO even better. In Haskell&amp;#x27;s do-notation, each binding in the form of `pat &amp;lt;- expr; next` desugars to monadic bind, with an extension to use applicatives instead where possible, but with OCaml&amp;#x27;s binding operators, there are three separate operators for functors, applicatives, and monads.&lt;p&gt;The 4.08.0 release also adds the Fun, Option, and Result modules to the standard library.</text></comment>

It is a shame that there are not many projects or companies that make use of all that it has to offer.</text></comment>
