I suspected this might be the case. I'm in the same course, too, and I had never even heard of SML before it. I thought to myself, what are the odds of this showing up on Hacker News right now?
Many thanks, regardless! I upvoted your thread in the course general discussion, and I hope any other course takers on HN do to. It would be a shame if the non-hn course takers missed out on the thread (https://class.coursera.org/proglang-2012-001/forum/thread?th...).
