Turn exercise 008 into practice

[cuihtlauac]

Extract the OCaml code from the markdown file corresponding to this exercise. The file is: data/exercise/008_NAME.md (where 008 is the number from the title of this issue and NAME is the rest of the file name, for instance data/exercise/001_tail.md is the file which corresponds to exercise 001). Use the code in this file to create a folder practice/008 (using this same number).

Populate the 008 folder with (almost) the same files as in folders practice/001 and practice/002 (they are examples).

Three files are different in each folder:

1. practice/008/ex.ml: it contains the function's signature, which needs to be implemented by the learner;
2. practice/008/work/impl.ml: it includes the template meant to be filed by the learner;
3. practice/008/answer/impl.ml: consists of the solution from the original markdown file.

The examples included in the original markdown file must be turned into test cases in the practice/008/ex.ml file.

Folder structure to create:

practice/008/
├── answer
│   ├── impl.ml
│   └── test
│       ├── dune
│       └── run.ml
├── dune
├── dune-project
├── ex.ml
└── work
    ├── impl.ml
    └── test
        ├── dune

@jahielkomu: sure, please do

Thank you @cuihtlauac
Please kindly expound on the statement;
"Populate the 008 folder with (almost) the same files as in folders practice/001 and practice/002(they are examples)."

I'm failing to find these folders, that is,practise/001 and practise/002 . Am I missing something?
Thanks.

Once you've cloned ocaml.org, the folders 001 and 002 are in the practice folder. You must create your own (with the name 008) aside from the existing ones.

I have to get the new changes locally, I cloned a forked repository way earlier let me get the updated version.
Thank you

Hello @cuihtlauac , I hope you are well.
Can I ask what the error No config found for file practice/008/answer/impl.ml. Try calling 'dune build'.ocamllsp means?
I have tried the suggestion therein but it hasn't helped.
If it is okay with you please advise.
Thank you.
