Learning Haxe
Using Haxe
Haxe is a strongly-typed multi-paradigm programming language that also supports cross-platform compiling into many different source and byte-code languages such as ActionScript 3, JavaScript, Java, C++, C#, PHP, Python, Lua, and Node.js.
Data Structures
As part of its Standard Library, Haxe supports several complex data structures: Array, Vector, List, GenericStack, and Map.
Array
An Array is an indexed, ordered data structure. It is created through either using its constructor or through defining open and closed square brackets.
Arrays have a type in Haxe. Mixed-type arrays are only allowed through the special Dynamic type.
Vector
A Vector is an indexed, ordered, fixed-length data structure.
Vectors are created through their constructor, haxe.ds.Vector(). The argument passed to it is the length.
List
A List is a a data collection without indexes, initializations, or comprehensions (iterated using looping functionality). However, elements can be freely added, removed, or filtered.
Lists have a type.
GenericStack
A GenericStack is an implementation of a stack, a first-in-last-out data structure. Like other complex data structures, it also has a type.
Note: GenericStack may need to be imported in order to be used.
Map
A Map is a collection of unique key-value pairs where each have their own types. When using Maps, the types of its values can either be explicitly defined or inferred by Haxe based on their values.
