`++coin`

Noun-literal syntax cases

Syntax cases for nouns-literal: atoms, jammed nouns, and nestable tuples. Parsed and printed using ++so and ++co cores.

Source

++  coin  $%  [$$ p=dime]
                  [$blob p=*]
                  [$many p=(list coin)]
              ==

Examples

    > `coin`(need (slay '~s1'))
    [%$ p=[p=~.dr q=18.446.744.073.709.551.616]]

    > `coin`(need (slay '0x2b59'))
    [%$ p=[p=~.ux q=11.097]]

    > ~(rend co [%many ~[[%$ %ud 1] [%$ %tas 'a'] [%$ %s -2]]])
    "._1_a_-2__"
    > ._1_a_-2__
    [1 %a -2]

    > `@uv`(jam [3 4])
    0v2cd1

    > (slay '~02cd1')
    [~ u=[%blob p=[3 4]]]

    > ~02cd1
    [3 4]

`++dime`

Aura-atom pair

Used in ++coin. Convenience methods ++scot and ++scow print dimes as ++cord and ++tape, respectively. ++slat, ++slav, and ++slaw are used to parse atoms of specific auras.

Source

++  dime  [p=@ta q=@]

Examples

    > +>:(slay '0x123')
    p=[p=~.ux q=291]

`++edge`

Parsing location metadata. Parsing location input p and optional result p.q and parsing continuation q.q.

Source

++  edge  [p=hair q=(unit [p=* q=nail])]                ::  parsing output

Examples

    > *edge
    [p=[p=0 q=0] q=~]

    > (tall:vast [1 1] "a b")
    [p=[p=1 q=3] q=[~ u=[p=[%wing p=~[%a]] q=[p=[p=1 q=2] q=" b"]]]]

`++hair`

Parsing line and column

A pair of two @ud used in parsing indicating line and column number.

Source

++  hair  [p=@ud q=@ud]

Examples

    > *hair
    [p=0 q=0]

    > `hair`[1 1]                                               :: parsing starts at [1 1] as a convention.
    [p=1 q=1]

    > ((plus ace) [1 1] "   --")
    [p=[p=1 q=4] q=[~ u=[p=[~~. "  "] q=[p=[p=1 q=4] q="--"]]]]

    > `hair`p:((plus ace) [1 1] "   --")
    [p=1 q=4]

`++like`

Generic edge

Generates an ++edge with a parsed result set to a specific type.

Source

++  like  |*  a=gate
              |=  b=_`*`[(hair) ~]
              :-  p=(hair -.b)
              ^=  q
              :-  ~
              u=[p=(a +>-.b) q=[p=(hair -.b) q=(tape +.b)]]

Examples

    > *(like char)
    [p=[p=0 q=0] q=~]

    > (ace [1 1] " a")
    [p=[p=1 q=2] q=[~ u=[p=' ' q=[p=[p=1 q=2] q="a"]]]]

    > `(like char)`(ace [1 1] " a")
    [p=[p=1 q=2] q=[~ [p=~~. q=[p=[p=1 q=2] q="a"]]]]

    > `(like ,@)`(ace [1 1] " a")
    [p=[p=1 q=2] q=[~ u=[p=32 q=[p=[p=1 q=2] q="a"]]]]

`++nail`

Location, remainder of parsed text

Indicates parsing position p, and remaining text to be parsed q.

Source

++  nail  [p=hair q=tape]

Examples

    > +<:;~(plug cab cab)
    c=[p=[p=0 q=0] q=""]

`++path`

Filesystem path

A list of ++knots. ++knot is another name for @ta.

Source

++  path  (list knot)

Examples

    > `path`"abc"
    /a/b/c

Discussion

Used in %clay and %eyre extensively.

`++pint`

Parsing range

A ++pint is a pair of ++hair, indicating from p to q. Mostly used for stack traces.

Source

Examples

    > !:(!!)                                                    :: !! always produces a crash
    /~zod/home/~2014.9.20..01.22.04..52e3/:<[1 4].[1 6]>

    > `pint`[[1 4] [1 6]]
    [p=[p=1 q=4] q=[p=1 q=6]]

`++rule`

Parsing rule

An empty parsing rule, but used to check that parsing rules match this with _.

Source

++  rule  _|=(nail *edge)

Examples

    > ([|=(a=nail [p.a ~ u=['a' a]])]:|6 [1 1] "hi")
    [[p=1 q=1] ~ u=['a' p=[p=1 q=1] q="hi"]]

`++spot`

Stack trace line

The stack trace that is printed after crashing.

Source

++  spot  [p=path q=pint]

Examples

    > !:  !!                                                    :: !! always produces a crash
      /~zod/home/~2018.8.8..21.42.40..7852:<[1 5].[1 7]>
    ! exit

`++tone`

Nock result, error report

Produces either success (%0), a block with list of requests blocked on (%1), or failure with an error report (%2).

Source

++  tone  $%  [$0 p=*]                                  ::  success
                  [$1 p=(list)]                             ::  blocks
