Description of the problem
SML/NJ declares:
val fromDecimal : IEEEReal.decimal_approx -> real
The Basis Library declares:
val fromDecimal : IEEEReal.decimal_approx -> real option
https://smlfamily.github.io/Basis/real.html#SIG:REAL.toDecimal:VAL
Although
Real.fromDecimal
is not implemented, it would be useful if its type matched the Basis Library to aid portability of code. (A user may chose to provide their own implementation which would be easier if the signatureREAL
didn't need to be redeclared.)Transcript
