Type:
getList: list x integer -> object
Call syntax:
getList(aList,
index)
aList
@index
Description:
Returns object from position index
in list aList;
position counting starts with 1 for the first element.
The variant using the @-operator can be used
synonymously; its use is encouraged
for the sake of brevity and improved readability of SALIERI
code.
Error conditions:
Specifying an incorrect position (not within
length (aList)) causes an error condition.
Example:
> getList(LIST(1,2,3,4), 3)
Result= 3
> LIST(1,2,3,4)@3
Result= 3
> getList(LIST(1,2,3,4), 5)
Error in command-line:
Wrong index
(occured while executing function "getList")
