List variables in jask

List variables in jask can store any type of data, even dictionaries, structs and other lists. Creating a new list is straight forward:

store list() in myList

Creating a new list with elements is easy as well:

store list(VAR1:VAR2...:VARN) in myList

If you add an element to a list, it will be appended at the end of the list:

assign listAdd(myList:VAR) to myList

Because all list functions are returning copies, you have to assign the results.

To access elements, use the index starting with 0 (zero):

store listGet(myList:INDEX) in myElement

or obtain all elements inside a range:

store listGetRange(myList:START:END) in myElements

If you want to set an element at a specified index:

assign listSet(myList:INDEX:VAR) to myList

Or to remove elements from your list:

assign listRemove(myList:INDEX) to myList

Remove elements in a range:

assign listRemoveRange(myList:START:END) to myList

Obtaining the size of a list:

store listSize(myList) in listSize

Check if a list contains an element:

print(listContains(myList:VAR))

Reverse the elements inside a list:

assign listReverse(myList) to myList

Extend a list with another list:

assign listExtend(myList:list(1:2:3)) to myList

Functions for string processing are supported too:

store listFromString("This string will be a list!") in myStrList

...and backwards:

print(listToString(myStrList))
