Basic variable functionality

Link to basic-variable-functionality

The most basic variable types of ZenScript are Strings, Integers and booleans.

Most single types

Link to most-single-types

true == true You can check if two values are the same.
"Hello" != "World" You can also check if two values are unequal.

Strings provide some functionality

"Hello".length Returns the string's length as int.
"Hello"[1] Returns the character at the string's given index as another string.
"Hello" in "Hell" checks if the string before in contains the string after it as boolean. You can replace the in with has if you like that better.
"Hel" ~ "lo " + "World" You also can add/concatenate strings. string += "assignAdd" you can also use the assignAdd/assignConcatenate operators.

Aside from these, all methods that are available to Java Strings and do not use the char type are also available to ZenScript strings!
This includes:

  • toLowerCase
  • toUpperCase
  • getBytes
  • hashCode
  • intern
  • isEmpty #是否为空
  • toCharArray
  • trim
  • split

Integers provide some functionality

+-*/% Basic mathematic operators (check the variable Types page). You can also use the operatorAssign tokens
0 to 10 Returns an Integer Range ranging from 0 to 10. 1~10 Concatenates the Integers (returns "110").

Booleans provide some functionality

true ~ false Concatenates the booleans (returns "truefalse").
& | ^ Boolean operators (and/or/xor).

Arrays/ArrayLists

Arrays and ArrayLists provide common functions

array[1] returns the item at the given index.
array[1] = "Hello" Sets the item at the given index.
array.length returns the arrays length
