Re: [swift-dev] AST – Understanding @lvalue

An lvalue is something that can be assigned to / changed. The terminology comes from assignment statements: in “foo = bar”, “foo” is a left-value (lvalue) and “bar" is a right-value (rvalue). The difference is that the lvalue is a named location that can take on a new value and an rvalue is just

[swift-dev] AST – Understanding @lvalue

I couldn’t find any documentation about lvalues in Swift. Can anybody give me a short explanation of what exactly an lvalue is? In C++ all variables, including those marked with the const modifier seem to be lvalues. It seems to me, that this is not the case for let constants in Swift. I compar

Re: [swift-dev] [swift-evolution] Possible bug with arithmetic optional comparison ?

I wouldn’t phrase it this way. “nil” could just as easily been above all of the integers. We added overloads for < and friends that took optionals so that you could sort an array by passing < and get something reasonable out without having to provide your own comparison function, but you’re not

[swift-dev] Fwd: Swift AST documentation

I would be interested in documentation of the AST syntax as well. Are there any documents about this so far? If not, are there any plans for such documentation in the future? > On 18 Jan 2016, at 21:26, Kostiantyn Koval via swift-dev > wrote: > > Hi, > > I'm trying to read and understand Sw
