StringOrd

The character code of the first character of a string.

Declaration

Syntax

StringOrd(expr arg, ttype type, expr? value)

Arguments

Argument

Description

arg

the string.

type

the type of the expression.

value

the compile time value of the expression, when the frontend could fold it; nil otherwise.

Return values

The value of the expression.

Description

The result is an integer. Ichar and Iachar are the Fortran spellings of the same idea, in the processor collating sequence and in ASCII respectively; StringOrd is LPython’s ord.

Examples

(StringOrd
  :arg (Var
    :v (SymbolRef 1 "c")
  )
  :type (Integer
    :kind 4
  )
  :value nil
)
