Add pages for "OCaml for X programmers"

[kalouantonis]

Many projects have guides like this. I think they're pretty handy for people coming from other languages looking to grasp the syntax/idioms quickly. Some examples:

Rust:

• Rust for C++ Programmers
• Rust for Python Programmers

Scala:

• A Scala Tutorial for Java Programmers
• Scala for Perl 5 Programmers

Haskell:

• Haskell Tutorial for C Programmers

This list is by no means extensive.

Great idea!

I can see this being its own page (ocaml_for_x_programmers) linking to a bunch of different pages. It could sit in learning, have its own subfolder within learning, and be linked from the main page.

Nice idea.

Here's a list of related articles I've in my bookmarks:

• OCaml for Haskellers
• Rust from a C++ and OCaml programmer's perspective
• The Genius of Python, The Agony of Ocaml
• Four MLs (and a Python)
• Comparing Objective Caml and Standard ML
• Standard ML and Objective Caml, Side by Side
• Python to OCaml: Retrospective

I know this is a lot of information but I just want to leave this here for reference.

I can start working on "OCaml for Python Programmers". I used Python extensively when I started learning OCaml.

OCaml for Reason Programmers might prove quite useful to write.

I'm planning on starting an "OCaml for Scala Programmers" since I use Scala at work, once I get some more time available.
