Operators

List of Operators

General

Operator	- Description
Type	- Get the ProcessTypeID of a ProcessType or define a new datatype. See Type.
. (period)	- Element access. <struct>.<element>. In case of a struct array, if no arrayelement is specified, it points to [0] (see example).

Maths

Operator	- Description
+	- Addition.
-	- Deduction
*	- Multiplication.
/	- Division.
%	- Modulus (remainder).

Logic

Operator	- Description
||	- OR. One or the other or both.
&&	- AND. Both.
^^	- XOR. One or the other, but not both.
!	- NOT.

Bitwise

(Logical operation per bit.)

Operator	- Description
|	- BOR. One or the other or both.
&	- BAND. Both.
^	- BXOR. One or the other, but not both.
~	- BNOT.
<<	- Bitshift left, causes bits to move left a certain number of positions.
>>	- Bitshift left, causes bits to move right a certain number of positions.

Memory

Operator	- Description
&	- OFFSET. Get the memory address of a variable. See pointer.
*	- POINTER. Get access to the variable a pointer is pointing to. See pointer.

Example

Type _point
    int x;
    int y;

    int int_1 = 1;
    int int_3 = 3;
