SALIERI Language - LIST

Type:
LIST: object x object times ... -> list

Call syntax:
LIST(obj_1, obj_2, ...)
(obj_1, obj_2, ...)

Description:
The constructor function LIST returns a list containing the objects obj_1, obj_2, ... as its element. When called without arguments, LIST returns the empty list. The abbreviated form (obj_1, obj_2, ...) can be used synonymously, whenever the list to be constructed contains less or more than one element.

Attention!
The abbreviated form (obj_1, obj_2, ...) cannot be used for constructing one-element lists, because (obj) is semantically equivalent to obj

Example:
> LIST(1,2,3)
Result= LIST(1,2,3)
> (1,2,3)
Result= LIST(1,2,3)
> LIST(1)
Result= LIST(1)
> (1)
Result= 1
> LIST()
Result= LIST()
> ()
Result= LIST()

See also: LISTINIT, consList, putList, getList, inList.
