Literals

The most fundamental of any language are its literals. Cheddar provides the 4 most basic literals:

  • Strings

  • Numbers

  • Booleans

  • Arrays

Additionally Cheddar has functions, interfaces, and more primitives. Classes will be covered in their very own section

Strings

Strings in Cheddar are like most programming languages:

 "Hello, World!"
 'Hello, World!'
 "2 + 2 = #{2+2}"
 '10 + 10 = #{10+10}'

Numbers

Numbers have many features in Cheddar to make them readable and clear:

123
123.456
123_456
0b123

Arrays

Arrays in Cheddar are like most other languages:

 [1,2,3]
 ["foo", "bar", "baz"]

Booleans

Booleans are either:

 true
 false
