Imagine you’re walking down the street on a nice summer’s day, and someone walks up to you and says “Hey, you work at InterSystems, right? I’ve been hearing more and more about InterSystems IRIS lately. I know IRIS has its own programing language called ObjectBook? or InstaScript? OK, I admit it, I know it’s called ObjectScript! I know IRIS also supports Python. I’m a Python developer, so that sounds great to me. But I’m also interested in ObjectScript. For example, Python and other languages support collections. Does ObjectScript support collections?”
You’d answer “Of course!”
And then your new friend might get excited and start firing off more questions:
- How many kinds of collections does ObjectScript support?
- Can ObjectScript use Python collections?
- Can Python use ObjectScript collections?
- Which collection is best?
How would you answer? Well, you don’t have to worry about answering. All you’d have to do is send your new friend the URL of this long page.
