Functions Reference

Inserts the element into the list at the right position so that the list remains correctly sorted ascendingly according to the sort expression. If the resulting list contains more than maxElements elements, the exceeding elements at the end will be removed. The remaining list is returned as the result. Note: This requires the given list to be already sorted ascendingly according to the sort expression.

Syntax. rankAsc (Any List list : Any sortExpression, Any element, Integer maxElements) : Any List

Parameters.

list Any List Preordered list of elements to be ranked

sortExpression Any Ranking criterion by which the elements will be sorted ascendingly

(27)

element Any The additional element to be inserted

maxElements Integer Maximum number of elements to remain in the list Examples.

rankAsc({1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7} : THIS, 4, 5) = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}

2.15. rankDesc(Any List list : Any sortExpression, Any element, Integer maxElements)

Inserts the element into the list at the right position so that the list remains correctly sorted descendingly according to the sort expression. If the resulting list contains more than maxElements elements, the exceeding elements at the end will be removed. The remaining list is returned as the result. Note: This requires the given list to be already sorted descendingly according to the sort expression.

Syntax. rankDesc (Any List list : Any sortExpression, Any element, Integer maxElements) : Any List

Parameters.

list Any List Preordered list of elements to be ranked

sortExpression Any Ranking criterion by which the elements will be sorted descendingly

element Any The additional element to be inserted

maxElements Integer Maximum number of elements to remain in the list Examples.

rankDesc({7, 6, 5, 3, 2, 1} : THIS, 4, 5) = {7, 6, 5, 4, 3}

2.16. select(Any Collection collection : Any expression)

Returns a new collection with the elements that result from evaluating expression for each element in collection.

Syntax. select (Any Collection collection : Any expression) : Any Collection Parameters.

collection Any Collection Collection to process

expression Any Expression evaluated for each element in the collection Examples.

select({1,8,2,3} : THIS * 2) = {2,16,4,6}

2.17. slice(Any List list, Integer begin, Integer end)

Returns the sublist from begin to end of list. If end is negative or 0, end+size(list) will be used. If begin is negative or 0, begin+size(list) will be used. If end is larger than the size of the list, all elements up to the end of

(28)

list are returned. If begin is smaller than 1, all elements starting from the first will be returned. If begin is larger than end, an empty collection will be returned.

Syntax. slice (Any List list, Integer begin, Integer end) : Any List Parameters.

list Any List List to process

begin Integer Start index

end Integer End index

Examples.

slice({1,8,2,3}, 2, 3) = {8,2}

slice({1,8,2,3}, 2, -2) = {8}

slice({1,8,2,3}, 3, 2) = {}

slice({1,8,2,3}, -2, 3) = {8,2}

2.18. slice(Any List list, Integer begin)

Returns the sublist from begin to the end of list.

Syntax. slice (Any List list, Integer begin) : Any List Parameters.

list Any List List to process

begin Integer Start index

Examples.

slice({1,8,2,3}, 2) = {8,2,3}

2.19. sortAsc(Any Collection collection : Any sortExpression)

Sorts the collection by expression in ascending order.

Syntax. sortAsc (Any Collection collection : Any sortExpression) : Any List Parameters.

collection Any Collection Collection to be sorted

sortAsc({1,3,8,2} : THIS) = {1,2,3,8}

sortAsc(customerList : name) Sorts the customer list by name ascending

(29)

sortAsc({"longer", "very long", "tiny"} : length(THIS)) Sorts the Strings by their length ascending

2.20. sortDesc(Any Collection collection : Any sortExpression)

Sorts the collection by expression in descending order.

Syntax. sortDesc (Any Collection collection : Any sortExpression) : Any List Parameters.

collection Any Collection Collection to be sorted

sortDesc({1,3,8,2} : THIS) = {8,3,2,1}

sortDesc(customerList : name) Sorts the customer list by name descending

sortDesc({"longer", "very long", "tiny"} : length(THIS)) Sorts the Strings by their length descending

3.1. copy(Any -> Any Map from)

Creates a copy of a Map and all its elements. The copy() function performs a deep copy, i.e. the Map and all contained elements are copied.

Syntax. copy (Any -> Any Map from) : Any -> Any Map Parameters.

from Any -> Any Map Map to be copied

3.2. count(Any -> Any Map map)

Returns the number of elements contained in the Map.

Syntax. count (Any -> Any Map map) : Integer Parameters.

map Any -> Any Map Map whose elements should be counted Examples.

count({a:42, b:23}) = 2

3.3. isEmpty(Any -> Any Map map)

Returns true if Map is empty, false otherwise.

Syntax. isEmpty (Any -> Any Map map) : Boolean Parameters.

map Any -> Any Map Map which should be checked Examples.

isEmpty({}) = true isEmpty(null) = true

isEmpty({1->"value1",2->"value2"}) = false
