Slice-to-slice concatenation?

[Brixy]

Fantastic language.

I've ported some Go scripts to Lisette. Working with Lisette is a breeze.

I'm struggling with a simple slice concatenation.

How is something like this possible?

let merged = raw1.append(raw2)

for item in merged {
	// ...
}

Also tested

[]
+
<<

and other common approaches.

Help highly appreciated. Thanks, guys.

If i understood correctly you want to concatenate two slices?

Go has a function for this:

import "go:slices"

fn main() {
  let a = [1, 2, 3]
  let b = [4, 5, 6]

  let merged = slices.Concat(a, b)

  for item in merged {
    // do stuff
  }
}

Gosh! Sorry for asking this - and thank you very much for your answer.

Very interesting to see and learn which parts are 'Lisette-native' and which parts come from Go (modules).

Had read the docs before but just found out about

lis doc

lis doc Slice

shows:

...
fn extend(self, other: Slice) -> Slice
Returns a new slice with all elements from other appended.
...

That's the Lisette way, and it works like a charm with JSON data.

Had tried .append before, but this is something different:

fn append(self, elements: VarArgs) -> Slice
Returns a new slice with the given elements appended.

Everything astonishingly mature for such a young language. Congratulations!
