_{Official ZPE/YASS documentation}Importing libraries

From version 1.7.12 (December 2019) library imports are handled with the import keyword. Prior to this version, the import command was used to import a library.

Imports all functions except the main function found in compiled script (compiled using the -c ZAC).

Using the import keyword

Once a library file has been imported from the expected file and has succeeded, the library can be accessed by its name. When the library is initially compiled, the -n argument allows the compiler to give it a name. E.g.

zpe -c stdLib.txt -n stdLib -o stdLib.zen

In this case, the library is accessed using the functions in the stdLib library (in this case, the gcd function is added using the stdLib library):

import stdLib
print(gcd(54, 3))
