## Bash Language
### Strings
## Strings
- `""` Defines a string which supports substitutions (`$` and `\`, for example).
- `''` Defines a string, but preserves its actual value (substitutions are treated as regular characters).
- [ANSI Escape Sequences](c-language.md#ANSI%20Escape%20Sequences) apply when using `""`.

## Variables
## Comments
- *Regular comments* which are ignored by the compiler:
- `// Line comments which go to the end of the line.`
- `/* Block comments which go to the closing delimiter. */`
- *Doc comments* which are parsed into HTML library documentation:
- `/// Generate library docs for the following item.`
- `//! Generate library docs for the enclosing item.`
## Formatted Print
## Primitives (Variables)
### Scalar Types
- Signed integers (default to `i32`): `i8`, `i16`, `i32`, `i64`, `i128` and `isize` (pointer size)
- Unsigned integers: `u8`, `u16`, `u32`, `u64`, `u128` and `usize` (pointer size)
- Floating point (default to `f64`): `f32`, `f64`
- `char` Unicode scalar values like `'a'`, `'α'` and `'∞'` (4 bytes each)
- `bool` either `true` or `false`
- The unit type `()`, whose only possible value is an empty tuple: `()`
### Compound Types
- Arrays: `[1, 2, 3]`
- Tuples: `(1, true)`
### Examples
Variables can either be *type annotated*, or infered by context. By default, a variable is always constant, and can be made mutable with the `mut` keyword. After creating a variable, its data type cannot be changed.
```rust
let x: i32; // A variable can only be used if it has been initialized (contains a value)
let y: i8 = 5; // All variables are constant by default.
let mut z = 1; // The mut keyword makes the variable mutable. (Explicit type annotation is not necessary, but recommended).
let (k, f); //Same as "let k; let f;"
let t = { // Initialize a variable as the result of an expression.
let squared = y * y;
squared
};
fn main() {
let x: i32; // Declare a variable
let a_float: f64 = 1.0; // Regular annotation
let an_integer = 5i32; // Suffix annotation
let default_float = 3.0; // `f64`
let default_integer = 7; // `i32`
// A type can also be inferred from context.
let mut inferred_type = 12; // Type i64 is inferred from another line.
inferred_type = 4294967296i64;
let mut mutable = 12; // Mutable `i32`
mutable = 21;
// Variables can be overwritten with shadowing.
let mutable = true;
// Array signature consists of Type T and length as [T; length].
let my_array: [i32; 5] = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
// Tuple is a collection of values of different types
// and is constructed using parentheses ().
let my_tuple = (5u32, 1u8, true, -5.04f32);
let (k, f); //Same as "let k; let f;"
let t = { // Initialize a variable as the result of an expression.
let squared = y * y;
squared
};
}
```
> A variable can only be used after it has been initialized (contains a value).
### Literals and Operators
Integers can also be expressed using hexadecimal `0x`, octal `0o` or binary `0b`.
To improve readability, `_` can be added to numbers: `1_000` is the same as `1000`.
Scientific e-notation such as `1e6`, `7.4e-4` is also supported, and defaults to `f64`.
The operators available and their precedence are similar to `C`:
```Rust
fn main() {
println!("1 + 2 = {}", 1u32 + 2); // Integer addition
println!("1 - 2 = {}", 1i32 - 2); // Integer subtraction
// Changing `1i32` to `1u32` would causa an integer underflow.
// Scientific notation
println!("1e4 is {}, -2.5e-3 is {}", 1e4, -2.5e-3);
// Short-circuiting boolean logic
println!("true AND false is {}", true && false);
println!("true OR false is {}", true || false);
println!("NOT true is {}", !true);
// Bitwise operations
println!("0011 AND 0101 is {:04b}", 0b0011u32 & 0b0101);
println!("0011 OR 0101 is {:04b}", 0b0011u32 | 0b0101);
println!("0011 XOR 0101 is {:04b}", 0b0011u32 ^ 0b0101);
println!("1 << 5 is {}", 1u32 << 5);
println!("0x80 >> 2 is 0x{:x}", 0x80u32 >> 2);
// Use underscores to improve readability!
println!("One million is written as {}", 1_000_000u32);
}
```

## Make
`Make` Is a build automation tool that automates the process of compiling, linking and building executables.
An example `Makefile` could look like the following:
An example `Makefile` (for an app using `GTK4`) could be as follows:
```Makefile
hello:
gcc -o hello hello.c -lcs50
CC = gcc
CFLAGS = $(shell pkg-config --cflags gtk4)
LIBS = $(shell pkg-config --libs gtk4)
hello: hello.c
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -o hello hello.c $(LIBS) -O2
debug: hello.c
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -o hello hello.c $(LDFLAGS) -Wall -Wextra -Og -g
clean:
rm -f hello
```
```Shell
make # Compiles hello.c
make debug # Compiles hello.c using debug flags
make clean # Removes the executable (hello) generated by the make command.
```
## Meson
While `make` automates compiling, on larger projects, makefiles can grow hard to read quickly, and dependency resolution has to be done using external tools (such as `pkg-config`).
Meson is a more modern alternative, which is faster, and uses declarative syntax (describe *what* to build, instead of *how* to build it). Meson can automatically manage dependencies, header files, and compiler flags.
When `meson` is executed, it generates a `ninja.build` file, which is then parsed by `ninja`, a lower-level build tool.
```meson.build
project('hello', 'c')
gtk4_dep = dependency('gtk4')
executable('hello', 'hello.c',
dependencies: gtk4_dep)
```
```bash
mkdir build
meson setup build # Generate files for Ninja in the build dir
meson compile -C build # Compile the project (same as `ninja -C build`)
./build/hello
ninja clean -C build # Clean executable files in the build directory
```
