BML Language Core

Data Types

• Scalars: String, Integer, Float, Boolean, Date
• Collections: String[], Integer[], Float[], Boolean[], Date[], String[][], Integer[][]
• Data Structures: dict(type), dict("anytype"), json(), jsonarray(), RecordSet

Operators

• Logical: AND, OR, NOT(condition) (never use &&, ||, !)
• Comparison: ==, <>, <=, >=, <, >
• Arithmetic: +, -, *, /, %
• Concatenation: +

Control Flow

// Conditionals
if (condition) {
    statement;
} elif (otherCondition) {
    statement;
} else {
    statement;
}

// For Loop (Iterating Arrays / RecordSets)
for item in itemArray {
    print item;
}

Array Literals, Sizing & Methods

// 1D Array Literal & Sized Declarations
colors = String[]{ "red", "green", "blue" };
buffer = String[10];

// 2D Array Literal & Sized Declarations
matrix = Integer[][]{ {1, 2}, {3, 4} };
grid = Float[5][5];

// Array Access (0-indexed)
firstColor = colors[0];
val = matrix[0][1];

// Common Array Functions
len = sizeofarray(colors);
idx = findinarray(colors, "green"); // returns -1 if not found
append(colors, "yellow");
remove(colors, 0); // removes element at index 0
sort(colors, "asc"); // "asc" or "desc"
reverse(colors);
intSeq = range(5); // [0, 1, 2, 3, 4]

Core Built-in Functions

• String: len(s), substring(s, start, [end]), find(s, sub), replace(s, old, new), trim(s), lower(s), upper(s), split(s, delim), join(arr, delim), atof(s), atoi(s), string(val), startswith(s, sub), endswith(s, sub), formatascurrency(num).
• Date: getdate([bool]), datetostr(d, [fmt], [tz]), strtojavadate(s, fmt, [tz]), adddays(d, n), addmonths(d, n), minusdays(d, n), comparedates(d1, d2), getdiffindays(d1, d2), isleap(d), isweekend(d), getcurrenttimeinmillis().
• Math: sqrt(x), pow(x, y), round(x, dec), ceil(x), fabs(x), fmod(x, y), sin(x), cos(x), tan(x), asin(x), acos(x), atan(x), log(x), ln(x), exp(x), hypot(x, y).
