The only form of mutability BQN has is the ability to change the value of a particular variable, that is, make the variable refer to a different value. Such a change can also change the behavior of a function or modifier that has the variable in its scope, and in this sense operation types are mutable—in fact it is possible to implement typical mutable data structures as functions that act on enclosed state.</p> <p>It is likely that in the future <a href="extensions.html#namespaces-and-symbols">namespaces</a>, or references to enclosed scopes, will be added as a more directly manipulable mutable data type.</p> <h2 id="data-types">Data types</h2> diff --git a/docs/style.css b/docs/style.css index 0a8727c9..1f1e9fa0 100644 --- a/docs/style.css +++ b/docs/style.css @@ -143,3 +143,12 @@ a:visited { color: #3d155f; } a:link { color: #5592d9; text-decoration-color: #508dd978; } a:visited { color: #8781c1; } } + +.purple { fill:#d6afe0; stroke:#3d1b46; } text.purple { fill:#3b1346; stroke:none; } +.bluegreen { fill:#55cbcb; stroke:#1c4e4e; } text.bluegreen { fill:#113939; stroke:none; } +.yellow { fill:#e2d17f; stroke:#a28237; } text.yellow { fill:#7a5a0e; stroke:none; } +@media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) { +.purple { fill:#241922; stroke:#612d86; } text.purple { fill:#6e2ca0; stroke:none; } +.bluegreen { fill:#0e2525; stroke:#297f7f; } text.bluegreen { fill:#578d8d; stroke:none; } +.yellow { fill:#5b4b25; stroke:#a27e2a; } text.yellow { fill:#9d7925; stroke:none; } +} |
