Has the syntax changed since the book was written, or am I doing something wrong? TIA ...
Poly is a different language from SML. SML was standardized in 1990 ("SML90") and updated in 1997 ("SML97"). You really want to refer to documentation for SML97. Any documentation prior to 1996 is likely to be for SML90, so it's best to avoid that.
