Negates a boolean function.

val forever : (unit -> unit) -> exn

val apply_n_times : n:int -> ('a -> 'a) -> 'a -> 'a

apply_n_times ~n f x is the n-fold application of f to x.

val id : 'a -> 'a

The identity function.

See also: Sys.opaque_identity.

val compose : ('b -> 'c) -> ('a -> 'b) -> 'a -> 'c

val flip : ('a -> 'b -> 'c) -> 'b -> 'a -> 'c

Reverses the order of arguments for a binary function.
