## When
It is very much like the kotlin's:
fun type(x) {
when(x) {
in 'a'..'z', in 'A'..'Z' -> "letter"
in '0'..'9' -> "digit"
'$' -> "dollar"
"EUR" -> "crap"
in ['@', '#', '^'] -> "punctuation1"
in "*&.," -> "punctuation2"
else -> "unknown"
}
}
assertEquals("digit", type('3'))
assertEquals("dollar", type('$'))
assertEquals("crap", type("EUR"))
>>> void
Notice, several conditions can be grouped with a comma.
Also, you can check the type too:
fun type(x) {
when(x) {
"42", 42 -> "answer to the great question"
is Real, is Int -> "number"
is String -> {
for( d in x ) {
if( d !in '0'..'9' )
break "unknown"
}
else "number"
}
}
}
assertEquals("number", type(5))
assertEquals("number", type("153"))
assertEquals("number", type(π/2))
assertEquals("unknown", type("12%"))
assertEquals("answer to the great question", type(42))
assertEquals("answer to the great question", type("42"))
>>> void
### supported when conditions:
#### Contains:
You can thest that _when expression_ is _contained_, or not contained, in some object using `in container` and `!in container`. The container is any object that provides `contains` method, otherwise the runtime exception will be thrown.
Typical builtin types that are containers (e.g. support `conain`):
| class | notes |
|------------|--------------------------------------------|
| Collection | contains an element (1) |
| Array | faster maybe that Collection's |
| List | faster than Array's |
| String | character in string or substring in string |
| Range | object is included in the range (2) |
(1)
: Iterable is not the container as it can be infinite
(2)
: Depending on the inclusivity and open/closed range parameters. BE careful here: String range is allowed, but it is usually not what you expect of it:
assert( "more" in "a".."z") // string range ok
assert( 'x' !in "a".."z") // char in string range: probably error
assert( 'x' in 'a'..'z') // character range: ok
assert( "x" !in 'a'..'z') // string in character range: could be error
>>> void
So we recommend not to mix characters and string ranges; use `ch in str` that works
as expected:
"foo" in "foobar"
>>> true
and also character inclusion:
'o' in "foobar"
>>> true
## while
Regular pre-condition while loop, as expression, loop returns the last expression as everything else:
