2753 :: space after inc triggers a warning during compilation

• strikr (orginal) [2017-01-25T01:14:50+01:00] view original

  writing an increment as

  
  inc (i)
  Run

  instead of

  
  inc(i)
  Run

  triggers a warning

  
  inc2.nim(8, 9) Warning: a [b] will be parsed as command syntax; spacing is deprecated [Deprecated]
  Run

  what's the reason ?

  f (a, b, c) should mean "pass the tuple (a, b, c) to f", not "pass 3 args to f".

  does that mean "no space between function name 'f' and opening parenthesis ("

  
  f( )
  Run

  is the way to write a function call ?

  would you recommend a lint like tool that i can run on the code to learn about these aspects of nim ?

  yes it is the way to write a function call. There is no lint like tool, we have the compiler for that.
