The beauty of abreviations in Softanza

[Mansour Ayouni]

Hello All,

When using Softanza, you'll get a high feeling of EXPRESSIVENESS in every function provided. Sometimes you'll need more.

In practice, some functions are used extensively and need to be abbreviated in very short forms. Here is a snapshot of those abbreviations offered to you:

# Returning a number in the form of string using S() abbreviation

? S(12) #--> "12"

# Returning a list in the form of string using S() abbreviation

? S(["A","B","C"]) #--> '["A","B","C"]'

# Returning a list of strings from ♥1 to ♥2 using L() abbreviation

? L(' "♥1" : "♥5" ') #--> [ "♥1", "♥2", "♥3", "♥4", "♥5" ]

# Returning a contiguous list of strings in a non latin script using L() abbreviation

? L(' "كلمة1" : "كلمة3" ') #--> [ "كلمة3", "كلمة2", "كلمة1" ]

# Returning a list of 5 Empty items using L() abbreviation

? L(5) ) #--> [ "", "", "", "", "" ]

# Returning the list of chars in a string (containing no spaces) using L() abbreviation

? L("SOFTANZA") #--> [ "S", "O", "F", "T", "A", "N", "Z", "A" ]

# Returning a list by splitting the string using space using L() abbreviation

? L("Programming By Heart!") #--> [ "Programming", "By", "Heart" ]

# Returning a number hosted in string using N() abbreviation

? N("12") #--> 12

# Returning a number written in letters inside a string using N() abbreviation

? N("seven") #--> 7

# Return a number written in arabic letters inside a string using N() abbreviation ? ("سبعة") #--> 7

# Returning the number of items of a list using N() abbreviation

? N([ "A", "B", "C" ]) #--> 3

# Returning the number of items in a list histed in a string using N() abbreviation

? N("[ 1, 2, 3 ]") #--> 3

# Returning the number of chars in a string using N() abbreviation

? N("SOFTANZA") #--> 8

# Returning the list of numbers contained in the list using LoN() abbreviation

? LoN([ "A", 12, "B", 14, "C", 20 ]) #--> [12, 14, 20]

PS: You can test those features when I publish the next upgrade by the end of this week. For now, this is a snapshot of them working on my machine...

Best,

Hello Mahmoud,

I'm glad you said this... They're just a few words but really help in these last miles of finishing the library!
