Basic Types

Stide has three basic types:

• Integer
• Real
• String

Basics types are implicitly declared.

---

Integer

A number without a fractional component is treated as an integer. An integer is a constant block without an identifier and an integer value assigned to it. It has a constant integer output port.

# Integer representation
constant INTEGER {
        value:  INTEGER
        meta:   none
}

INTEGER:-?[0-9]+ Example:0, 1024, -32768

---

Real

A number with a fractional component is treated as a real. A real is a constant block without an identifier and a real value assigned to it. It has a constant real output port.

## Real representation
constant REAL {
        value:  REAL
        meta:   none
}

REAL:-?({ [0-9]+.[0-9]*} | {[0-9]*.[0-9]+ }) Example:.1, 1.1, 1., -.1, -1.1, -1.

String

A sequence of characters enclosed in single or double quotation marks is treated as a string. A string is a constant block without a identifier and has a string value assigned to it. It has a constant string output port.

# String representation
constant STRING {
        value:  STRING
        meta:   none
}

STRING:{'.+'} | {".+"} Example:'A sting.', "A string."
