I majored in math so I was already familiar with some of the concepts, but OCaml is so different from any language I’ve worked in I couldn’t understand how any of it was being applied.

I can try to explain this to you from a math perspective, if you want, but I need to know your math background. Are you familiar with the lambda calculus and its relationship to category theory?
