Classes

In NoShift.js, class names and other identifiers that need uppercase letters use the ^6 capitalize modifier.

Basic Class

Use ^6 before each character that should be uppercase:

class ^6animal ^[
  constructor^8name^9 ^[
    this.name ^- name;
  ^]

  speak^8^9 ^[
    console.log^8^@^4^[this.name^] speaks.^@^9;
  ^]
^]

const dog ^- new ^6animal^8^2^6dog^2^9;
dog.speak^8^9;

Compiles to:

class Animal {
  constructor(name) {
    this.name = name;
  }

  speak() {
    console.log(`${this.name} speaks.`);
  }
}

const dog = new Animal("Dog");
dog.speak();

Inheritance

Extends works the same way - just capitalize the parent class name:

class ^6dog extends ^6animal ^[
  constructor^8name^9 ^[
    super^8name^9;
  ^]

  bark^8^9 ^[
    console.log^8^@^4^[this.name^] barks!^@^9;
  ^]
^]

const d ^- new ^6dog^8^2^6rex^2^9;
d.bark^8^9;

Compiles to:

class Dog extends Animal {
  constructor(name) {
    super(name);
  }

  bark() {
    console.log(`${this.name} barks!`);
  }
}

const d = new Dog("Rex");
d.bark();

Methods & Properties

Method names that contain uppercase letters also use ^6:

class ^6person ^[
  constructor^8name, age^9 ^[
    this.name ^- name;
    this.age ^- age;
  ^]

  get^6info^8^9 ^[
    return ^@^4^[this.name^] ^8^4^[this.age^]^9^@;
  ^]

  set^6name^8new^6name^9 ^[
    this.name ^- new^6name;
  ^]
^]

Compiles to:

class Person {
  constructor(name, age) {
    this.name = name;
    this.age = age;
  }

  getInfo() {
    return `${this.name} (${this.age})`;
  }

  setName(newName) {
    this.name = newName;
  }
}

Static Members

Static methods and properties work as expected:

class ^6math^6helper ^[
  static ^6p^6i ^- 3.14159;

  static circle^6area^8r^9 ^[
    return ^6math^6helper.^6p^6i ^: r ^: r;
  ^]
^]

console.log^8^6math^6helper.circle^6area^85^9^9;

Compiles to:

class MathHelper {
  static PI = 3.14159;

  static circleArea(r) {
    return MathHelper.PI * r * r;
  }
}

console.log(MathHelper.circleArea(5));
