constructor - OCaml - creating custom types of custom types -


if have data types identification , person, how use them?

type identification = name of string | ss of int * int;;  type person = personal_info of identification;; 

how make person type has identification? how construct variable these types in it..?

something this:

person1 = personal_info (name = "cody") (ss = (231,4534));; val person1 : person = ..... 

your identification type specifies either name or social security number. looks me want have both of them. should use record type:

type ident = { name: string; ss: int * int } 

since person type has 1 variant, redundant (not couldn't useful in cases).

here value of type ident:

{ name = "cody"; ss = (231, 4534) } 

if want use person type, this:

type person = pi of ident 

a value of type this:

pi { name = "cody"; ss = (231, 4534) }
