Data manipu­lation 1

String - append
str : "­str­" + "­str­"
String - compare
bool : "str == "­str­"
String - interp­olation
"­value: <st­r>"
List - assignment
list[int] : [3,2,1];
List - append
list[int] : [3,2] + 1;
Set - assignment
set[int]: {3,2,1}
Set - append
set[int]: {3,2} + 1;
All values are immutable

Data manipu­lation 2

// data Game = game(list[Player] players);
// Game game = getGame();

// Access players:
game.players

// Overwrite players:
game.players = []

// Add player:
game.players = game.players + player

If else

if("str" == "str") {
    iprintln("true");
} else {
    iprintln("false");
}

For loop (array)

list[int] numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];

for (number <- numbers) {
    iprintln(number);
}

For loop (map)

map[str, int] numbers = ["one" : 1, "two" : 2,
"three" : 3, "four" : 4, "five" : 5];

for (numberText <- numbers) {
    int numberValue = numbers[numberText];
    iprint­ln(­num­berValue);
}

File manipu­lation

Read file
readFi­le(­loc­ation)
Write file
writeF­ile­(lo­cation, value)

Method definition

public str getString() {
    return "String";
}
The method test() is reserved
 

Visit pattern - Matches

wildcard
_
Value check
"­exact value"
Assignment
method
Block assignment
block:

Visit pattern - Example 1

visit (ast) {
    case \import(importName): {
        iprintln(importName);
    }
}

Visit pattern - Example 2

visit (ast) {
    case \impor­t(_): {
        iprint­ln(­"­Found an import­");
    }
}

Visit pattern - Example 3

visit (ast) {
    case \impor­t("I­mpo­rte­dCl­ass­"): {
        iprint­ln(­"­found Import­edC­las­s");
    }
}

Visit pattern - Example 4

visit (ast) {
    case \field(simpleType(simpleName(name)), _): {
        iprint­ln(­"­found a field: <name>");
    }
}
