    In other words, in OCaml, you don’t have to write type annotations into the function parameter list. It will infer even those.

    It’s useful for small ad-hoc functions, but personally, I’m glad that Rust is more explicit here.

      yeah structs, consts ets should always be explicit, prevents a lot oh headache
      also, for adhoc stuff rust has closures which can be fully inferred (but you need to convert them to explicit function pointers for storage in structs/consts)
