See Leland Documents for more information on using the Leland system at Stanford.

If you use Standard ML on Leland, you might find that the results of expressions sometimes have '#' charachters intead of computed values or sub-expressions. The runtime system truncates answers at around 20 characters by default, inserting hashes to make the results more compact (!) You can get more information by entering Compiler.Control.Print.printDepth := 100;

All CS242 students must have a SUNet ID providing access to the Leland system.
