Data Structures

Zap provides built-in support for complex data structures like records, enums, and arrays.

Records

Records are custom data types that group together variables under a single name.

record Person {
    name: String,
    age: Int,
    email: String
}

Records can be used to pass complex data between functions and organize your application state.

Enums

Enums are used to define a set of named constants.

enum Color { Red, Green, Blue }

enum Size { Small, Medium, Large, ExtraLarge }

Enums are especially powerful when combined with pattern matching (planned feature).

Arrays

Arrays are fixed-size, zero-indexed collections of elements.

var list: [3]Int = {1, 2, 3};
