newSequence¶
Creates a new value sequence object. A value sequence is-a value object but also has-some value objects (see Value Sequence Methods).
See also newValue, asSequence.
Syntax¶
newSequence(data[,type])
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
data |
The data to be wrapped in the value object. If an array is provided, each item will be wrapped in a value object and added to the value sequence. |
type |
The value type to be used to interpret the data. If not provided the type is guessed (as much as possible) from the data. See Value Types section for a complete list of types and supported value formats. |
Examples¶
Create some value sequences:
// Creates a value sequence of type 'text' with one item
newSequence('lorem ipsum')
// Creates a value sequence of type 'integer' with one item
newSequence(123)
// Creates a value sequence of type 'integer' with one item
newSequence('123','integer')
// Creates a value sequence of type 'text' with 3 items
newSequence(['a','b', 'c'])
