Operators & operations
=> (chuck)+ - * / (arithmetic)% (modulo)&& || == != >= <=” (logic)& | ^ (bitwise)++ – (inc / dec)! + - new (unary)You may have seen many of the operators in other PRogramming languages (C/java). Some others are native to ChucK. We start with the family of ChucK operators.
The ChucK operator (=>
) is a massively(大量地) overloaded operator that, depending on the types involved(包含), performs various actions(執行各種操作). It denotes(表示) **action**, can be chained(鏈接), and imposes(強制執行) and clarifies order(理清順序) (always goes *from left to right*).
The ChucK operator is the means by which work is done in ChucK. Furthermore(此外), the ChucK operator is not a single operator, but a family of operators.
We start with the standard, plain-vanilla(普通的,無修飾的) ChucK operator (=>
). It is left-associative (all ChucK operators are), which allows us to specify(指定) any ordered flow of data/tasks/modules (such as unit generator connection) from left to right, as in written (English) text. What =>
does depends on the context(環境). It always depends on the type of the entity(實體) on the left (the chucker(投手)) and the one on the right (the chuckee(接球手)), and it sometimes also depends on the nature of the entity (such as whether it is a variable(變量的) or not).
Some examples: (用了c的高亮,至少好看點)
// a unit generator patch - the signal flow is apparent// (in this case, => connects two unit generators)SinOsc b => Gain g => BiQuad f => dac;// add 4 to foo, chuck result to new 'int' variable 'bar'// (in this case, => assigns a value to a variable (int)4 + foo => int bar;// chuck values to a function == function call// (same as Math.rand2f( 30, 1000))( 30, 1000 ) => Math.rand2f;There are many other well-defined(定義明確的) uses of the ChucK operator, depending on the context.
@=>
(explicit(明確的) assignment(分配) ChucK operator)In ChucK, there is no stardard assignment operator (=), found in many other programming languages. Assignment is carried out using ChucK operators. In the previous examples, we have used => for assignment:
// assign 4 to variable foo4 => int foo;// assign 1.5 to variable bar1.5 => float bar;// assign duration of 100 millisecond to duh100::ms => dur duh;// assign the time "5 second from now" to later5::second + now => time later;The @=>
explicit assignment ChucK operator behaves exactly the same for the above types (int, float, dur, time). However, the difference is that @=>
can also be used for reference assignments(分配) of objects (see objects and classes) whereas(然而) =>
only does assignment on primitive(原始的) types (int, float, dur, time). The behavior(行為) of =>
on objects is completely context-dependent(上下文相關的).
In its own screwed-up(糟透了的) way, this is kind of nice because there is no confusion(混淆) between assignment (@=>
or =>
) and equality (==
). In fact, the following is not a valid ChucK statement(聲明):
These operators are used with variables(變量) (using ‘int’ and ‘float’) to perform one operation with assignment(執行一個有分配的操作).
// add 4 to foo and assign result to foofoo + 4 => foo;// add 4 to foo and assign result to foo4 +=> foo;// subtract 10 from foo and assign result to foo// remember this is (foo-10), not (10-foo)10 -=> foo;// 2 times foo assign result to foo2 *=> foo;// divide 4 into foo and assign result to foo// again remember this is (foo/4), not (4/foo)4 /=> foo;It is important to note the relationship between the value and variable when using -=>
and /=>
, since these operations are not commutative(交換的).
cast(轉換)
ChucK implicitly(隱式地) casts int values to float when float is expected, but not the other around. The latter could result in a loss of information and requires an explicit(明確的) cast.
// adding float and int produces a float9.1 + 2 => float result;// however, going from float to int requires cast4.8 $ int => int foo; // foo == 4//這里的$是什么意思?// this function expects two floatsMath.rand2f( 30.0, 1000.0 );// this is ok because of implicit castMath.rand2f( 30, 1000 );The modulo operator %
computes the remainder(余數) after integer(整數), floating point, duration, and time/duration division.
the latter (time/duration mod) is one of many ways to dynamically(動態地) synchronize(同步) timing in shreds. the examples otf_01.ck
through otf_07.ck
(see under examples
) make use of this to on-the-fly(運行時) synchronize its various parts, no matter when each shred is added to the virtual(虛擬的) machine:
This is one of many ways to compute and reason about(思考) time in ChucK. The appropriate(適當的) solution(解決方案)(s) in each case depends on the intended(打算的) functionality(功能).
Logical operators - each of these need two operands(操作數). The result is an integer value of 0 or 1.
&& : and|| : or== : equals!= : does not equal> : greater than>= : greater than or equal to< : less than<= : less than or equal to // test some universal truths(普遍的真理)if( 1 <= 4 && true ) <<<"horray">>>;These are used on int values at the bit level, often for bit masking.
>> : shift bits right(右移位) ( 8 >> 1 = 4 )<< : shift bits left ( 8 << 1 = 16 )& : bitwise AND| : bitwise OR^ : bitwise XORValues may be incremented or decremented by appending(附加) the ++
or --
operators.
These operators come before(位于…之前) one operand(操作數).
// logical invertif( !true == false ) <<<"yes">>>;// negative-1 => int foo;// instantiate objectnew object @=> object @ bar;
