In this chapter, you will get more detailed information about the ABC programming language. Names are used for variables and types and are case-insensitive.
Symbols are case-sensitive.
Both Strings and Character constants may contain escape characters while strings may have format codes. Both escape and format characters are based on C conventions and are shown in Table 1. The format characters may be preceded by an optional minus sign, digit string representing a minimum field width and a period and digit string representing the maximum number of characters printed from a string or the number of digits after a decimal for a real number. Arrays do not have to be homogeneous. Note that the variable 'obj' executes asString to convert the object to a String.
