I'm  confused.   The  word  `example' clearly makes no sense.  He seems to be
referring to the fact that OCaml allows arbitrary order of evaluation for
    f arg1 ... argn
(I couldn't find any place that requires it to be right-to-left).   Even  so,
how  does that help to generate specialized entries for partial applications?
