Example Structure isType 005

 

 

Description

These examples check if the argument object is of the type Structure. If it is, the function returns true, otherwise, it returns false.

 

Details

The Structure employee is defined.

(defineStructure employee: name: job: salary:) Returns: employee

"Bob", an instance of "employee" is defined.

(define Bob (new employee: name: "Bob Smith" job: "Manager" salary: 2201.34)) Returns: employee

The Structure "manager", which inherits from "employee" is defined.

(defineStructure manager: include: 'employee 'perks) Returns: manager

"Manager", an instance of "manager" Structure is defined.

(define Manager (new manager: perks: "parking")) Returns: manager

Check whether "Bob" is of type "employee".

(isType employee:Bob) Returns: true

Check whether "Manager" is of type "manager".

(isType manager:Manager) Returns: true

"Manager" is of type "manager". The type "manager" inherits from type "employee". By inheritance, the object "Manager" is of type "employee"

(isType employee: Manager) Returns: true

"Bob" is of type "employee". The type "employee" does not inherit from type "manager". Therefore, "Bob" is an "employee" but not a "manager".

(isType manager: Bob) Returns: false

Notes and Hints

The syntax: (isType Structure: obj)
is also equivalent to: (isStructure obj)
