_{Official ZPE/YASS documentation}C-style syntax

YASS has supported compilation of a C style syntax since a very early version. It is therefore possible to compile YASS syntax with C like constructs in it (remember that C is one of the languages to inspire ZPE).

Although this page has not yet explain how ZPE functions work, this sample discusses how to write a ZPE function in the C syntax (note there are no semi-colons but braces):

function main() {
  $x = 10
}
    

The use of the braces means that end function is not required.

Almost every, if not every, construct in ZPE, supports the C style notation as well as the standard (sugary syntax). For example, for-loops support it:

for ($i = 0; $i < 10; $i++) {
  $x = 10
}
