Scripts

Scripts are made up of two main parts and are written as follows:

Class, Namespace, Function, Global and Use definitions Main program code

The Main program code is what is called when the script is run. All parts of a program have to be declared before they are used. This is to keep the code clean rather than a name resolution reason (all names are resolved at runtime within ferite). The Main program code is equivalent to the main() method within a C or Java program.

An example script (the famous Hello World program):

uses "console"; Console.println( "Hello World from ferite" );

The 'uses' statement is used to import API either from and external module or from another script and is described in greater depth later on. This is highly useful as the default operation of ferite has no API.
