1   Introduction

The purpose of this document is to provide a short introduction to PLAN and the basic usage of the 3.2 OCaml implementation. It will be of help to people just starting with PLAN, although experienced PLAN programmers might use this as a quick reference.

PLAN 3.2 is implemented in OCaml version 2.02. Previous versions of PLAN (up to 2.22) were written in Java [2] (and an extension, Pizza [6]), which has its own documentation. This document assumes that installation (of both PLAN and its required components) has completed successfully; refer to the Installation document for that.
