• Description:
    Static lists are the biggest feature (when comparing with C), that allows You to create/setup Your own lists everywhere You like, not only in definition, where it requires it's own variable, this feature extremely simplifies program structure and speedups it's writing. Lists outside a procedure can contain only values, constants, strings and also other lists. List inside a procedure can contain everything what can return a value or an address.

  • Syntax:
    Each list starts with "[" and stops with "]". If ":" follows, this list will be typed. After ":" character must follow one of PowerD types or name of an OBJECT. If no ":" used, then will be this list typed as PTR TO LONG.

  • Examples of untyped lists: 
      [0,1,2,NIL,TRUE,1.2,3.2]
  ['Hello',10,20,'World!',"\n",[1,[2],3]]

  • Examples of typed lists: 
      [1.2,3.4,5.6,1,2,3]:FLOAT

  OBJECT myobj
    count:LONG,
    width:DOUBLE,
    yesstr:PTR TO CHAR,
    nostr:PTR TO CHAR,
    list:PTR TO WORD

  [0,0.2,'Yes','No',[-1]:WORD]:myobj
