type person = name * address;;
type 'a personal_data = PD of 'a;;
+* When a type only has a single variant, as with PersonalData, Haskell programmers will often use the same name for both the type and the value constructor, like this:
+
+ data PersonalData a = PersonalData a
+
+ The interpreter can always tell from the context when you're using the type name and when you're using the value constructor.
+
* The type constructors discussed above took simple types as arguments. In Haskell, types are also allowed to take *type constructors* as arguments:
data BarType t = Bint (t Integer) | Bstring (t string)
which can be translated straightforwardly into OCaml.

* If you like the Haskell do-notation, there's [a library](http://www.cas.mcmaster.ca/~carette/pa_monad/) you can compile and install to let you use something similar in OCaml.
* In order to do any printing, Haskell has to use a special `IO` monad. So programs will look like this:
