|---|---|
print(args...) | Print to stdout without newline. |
println(args...) | Print to stdout with newline. |
input(prompt) | Read input from stdin with prompt. |
read() | Read line from stdin. |
time() | Get current time in millis. |
sleep(ms) | Sleep for milliseconds. |
call(methodName, args...) | Call a method by name using variable indirection. |
setTimeout(delay, methodName, callbacks) | Execute a method after a delay in milliseconds (non-blocking). |
random() | Random double [0.0, 1.0). |
randomInt(max) | Random integer [0, max). |
parseInt(str) | Convert string to integer. |
parseDouble(str) | Convert string to double. |
split(str, del) | Split string into array. |
timestampToDate(ts) | Convert timestamp to Date struct. |
dateToTimestamp(d) | Convert Date struct to timestamp. |
printDate(d) | Print Date struct (YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS). |
formatDate(d, fmt) | Format Date struct using pattern. |
The call() function allows calling methods by name using String variable indirection:
function greet(name) {
return "Hello " + name;
}
methodName = "greet";
result = call(methodName, "World"); # Returns "Hello World"
The setTimeout() function executes a method after a specified delay. Execution is non-blocking and runs in a separate thread.
function delayed() {
println("Executed after 1 second");
}
setTimeout(1000, "delayed");
Fahrenheit provides specific methods for handling dates and times.
# Get current time
t = time();
# Convert to Date struct
d = timestampToDate(t);
println("Year: " + d.year);
# Format date
println(formatDate(d, "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm"));
