Next: Vector Creation, Up: Vectors [Contents][Index]
Vectors can literally be entered in source code, just like strings,
characters or some of the other data types. The read syntax for vectors
is as follows: A sharp sign (#
), followed by an opening
parentheses, all elements of the vector in their respective read syntax,
and finally a closing parentheses. Like strings, vectors do not have to
be quoted.
The following are examples of the read syntax for vectors; where the first vector only contains numbers and the second three different object types: a string, a symbol and a number in hexadecimal notation.
#(1 2 3) #("Hello" foo #xdeadbeef)
