Function

rec ( nof(any) ) -> record

Syntax

rec({<name> field := <any> a[,]})

Description

Record literals are written by writing down the components in order between 'rec(' and ')', and separating them by commas ','. Each component consists of the name, the assignment operator ':=', and the value. The empty record, i.e., the record with no components, is written as 'rec()'.

Examples

rec( a := 1, b := '2' ); # a record with two components
rec( a := 1, b := rec( c := 2 )); # records may contain records
