| Language level | Description |
|---|---|
| statements | This document defines the MaSH programming language at its statements level. The statements level omits all control structures. It permits focus on declaring and using variables and constants, and using the APIs provided by MaSH environments. |
| control | This document defines the MaSH programming language at its control level. The control level adds control structures, such as loops and selections. This document only describes what is different or new with respect to the statements level. |
| methods | This document defines the MaSH programming language at its methods level. The methods level encapsulates statements in methods (procedures and functions). This document only describes what is different or new with respect to the statements and control levels. |
| arrays | This document defines the MaSH programming language at its arrays level. The arrays level adds the array data type. This document only describes what is different or new with respect to the lower MaSH levels. |
We're building some instructions for Installing MaSH on your own computer on the School Wiki.
You have to be already logged into Learning@Griffith for the above links to work.
The links won't work (even if you are logged into Learning@Griffith) if you are not a member of the organisation School of ICT Forum. You are automatically enrolled in this organisation if you are doing an ICT degree (such as IT or Multimedia). If you are doing a degree based in another school or centre, you can self enroll.
