What does OCaml mean?

OCaml
OCaml ( oh-KAM-əl) (formerly Objective Caml) is the main implementation of the Caml programming language, created in 1996 by Xavier Leroy, Jérôme Vouillon, Damien Doligez, Didier Rémy, Ascánder Suárez, and others. It extends Caml with object-oriented features, and is a member of the ML family. The OCaml toolchain includes an interactive top-level interpreter, a bytecode compiler, an optimizing native code compiler, a reversible debugger, and a package manager (OPAM). It has a large standard library, which makes it useful for many of the same applications as Python and Perl, and has robust modular and object-oriented programming constructs that make it applicable for large-scale software engineering. The acronym CAML originally stood for Categorical Abstract Machine Language, but OCaml omits this abstract machine. OCaml is a free and open-source software project managed and principally maintained by the French Institute for Research in Computer Science and Automation (INRIA). In the early 2000s, elements from OCaml were adopted by many languages, notably F# and Scala.
