Types?

[cavetroll]

ok I know how to use types fairly well but I am running into one main issue and I'm not sure if its resolvable

heres what I want to do

Turing:

type node : record x : int y : int parent : node end record

Is it possible to do this? If so what code do I need to add?

Are you trying to make a linked list?

I think for this you have to use another construction, called collections. There are examples in the linked list tutorial.

I think you can still use type you just need a pointer :

Turing:

type node :    record       x : int       y : int       parent : ^node    end record

But I no longer have Turing so I'm not sure.

Yes that is correct, to declare a node you would have to do

Turing:

var moo : ^node % Create a  new node and assign the memmory to the pointer new moo

At the end

Turing:

% Free the memmory assigned free moo

Yes I am trying to create a linked list thanks for all the help, that tutorial helped lots. I would have responded quicker to save some of you the trouble of posting but I was out. Sorry

Again thanks for the help
