echo type(sparky) # Animal
echo type(sparky[]) # Animal:ObjectType
Run
Since `Animal` is defined as a `ref object`, you can deference it get the
underlying `object`, and `object` types have have default printers in Nim.
1. `echo sparky` doesn't work as you haven't defined the appropriate `$` for
it.
2. `sparky.$()` looks like the use of a dot-like operator named `.$`
3. `$sparky` doesn't work as you've only defined a `$` that takes two
parameters
Apart from that, it's easy to understand, right? If you w
I fixed your program (with beef's help) so that it fits on one line:
type Animal = tuple[name:string;age:int];let speak=(proc(self:var
Animal,msg:string)=echo self.name&" says:"&msg);let setName=(proc(self:var
Animal,name:string)=self.name=name);let incAge=(proc(self:var
Animal)=se
Turns out the formatters appear to not like code-blocks without _any_ other
.text
`type Animal = ref object name: string age: int proc speak(self: Animal, msg:
string) = echo self.name & " says:" & msg proc setName(self: Animal,
name:string) = self.name = name proc incAge(self: Animal) = self.age += 1 proc
`$`(x:Animal ): string= $x.name & " is " & $x.age & " years old" var s
thanks for the quick reply, i really do not know how to format the code using
rst. after going through the nim manual i was able to fix it.
`type Animal = ref object name: string age: int proc speak(self: Animal, msg:
string) = echo self.name & " says:" & msg proc setName(self: Animal,
name:string) = self.name = name proc incAge(self: Animal) = self.age += 1 proc
`$`(x, y:Animal ): string= $x.name & " is " & $y.age.int & " old" var
I'd like to ask you to at least format this instead of forcing it into a single
line. It's intensely difficult to read in this format.
Ideally just use three backticks aka:
```nim
```
