Input-Output

Description

Input/Output is handled in a special way in Funky.

I/O-functions must be called with so-called I/O-access rights.

To call a function with I/O-access rights you

  • must have I/O-access rights yourself

  • hand them on to the called function

    To hand on I/O-access rights a function is called with a "!"-suffix.

    Example

    println! "Hello, world!"

    Output

    Hello, world!
