This project was undertaken as part of my final year, in Licence 3 (equivalent to the last year of Bachelor in France) at University Paris Diderot within the scope of a functional programming course.

• ocaml, of course
• dune and make are highly recommended
• graphics library if not already included with ocaml

By default, make is used to abbreviate the dune commands (see Makefile for more details):

• make without arguments will compile main.exe using dune, which is your program in native code.

• make byte will compile to bytecode if necessary, useful for running your code in an OCaml toplevel, see lsystems.top.

• make clean to remove the temporary _build directory produced by dune during its compilations.

Finally, to run your program: ./run arg1 arg2 ...

Your program must have been compiled using make byte. You should have emacs installed, as well as an OCaml mode for emacs, such as tuareg-mode.

• In an external file start.ml outside the project directory, for example above the projet directory, copy the contents of lsystems.top without its first directive (#ocaml init). Add to the #directory directives the necessary prefixes to access the same directories (for example projet/ if you are above projet).

• In the same directory, open your test file under emacs. Start it with #use "start.ml;;". Simply evaluate this directive, which will launch the interpreter: you can then perform your tests.

If the program is recompiled (always using make byte), you will need to interrupt the interpreter with the #quit;; directive and then restart it by reevaluating #use "start.ml;;".
