Math Operations. Structs. Arrays in solidity


Math Operations in Solidity

Math in Solidity is pretty straightforward. The following operations are the same as in most programming languages:
pragma solidity >=0.5.0 <0.6.0;

contract HelloWorld {    uint x2 = 5 + 2;  //= 7    uint x1 = 5 ** 2; //5^2 = 25    uint x2 = 13 % 5; //= 3}

Structs and Arrays in Solidity

Structs

Structs allow you to create more complicated data types that have multiple properties.
struct Person {
  uint age;
  string name;
}

Arrays

When you want a collection of something, you can use an array. There are two types of arrays in Solidity: fixed arrays and dynamic arrays:
uint[2] fixedArray;
string[5] stringArray;

uint[] dynamicArray;struct Person {
  uint age;
  string name;
}Person[] people;

Structs and Arrays

struct Person {
  uint age;
  string name;
}Person[] public people;Person satoshi = Person(172, "Satoshi");
people.push(satoshi);

LEARN SOLIDITY LESSON 11: Payable function. Withdraws Ether & Transfer ETH. Check Balance in SOLIDITY

LEARN SOLIDITY LESSON 11 Payable function. Withdraws Ether & Transfer ETH. Check Balance in SOLIDITY Payable function payable functions are part of what makes Solidity and Ethereum so cool — they are a special type of function that can receive Ether. contract OnlineStore { function buySomething() external payable { // Check to make sure 0.001 ether was sent to the function call: require(msg.value == 0.001 ether); // If so, some logic to transfer the digital item to the caller of the function: transferThing(msg.sender); } } Note: If a function is not marked payable and you try to send Ether to it as above, the function will reject your transaction. Withdraws Ether. Get Balance ETH You can write a function to withdraw Ether from the contract as follows: contract GetPaid is Ownable { function withdraw() external onlyOwner { address payable _owner = address(uint160(owner())); _owner.transfer(address(this).balance); } } It is important to note that you c...

LEARN SOLIDITY LESSON 8: Interacting with other contracts. Interface Solidity

LEARN SOLIDITY LESSON Interface Solidity. Interacting with other contracts.  Interface Solidity.  Define an interface of the LuckyNumber contract: contract LuckyNumber { mapping(address => uint) numbers; function setNum(uint _num) public { numbers[msg.sender] = _num; } function getNum(address _myAddress) public view returns (uint) { return numbers[_myAddress]; } } contract NumberInterface { function getNum(address _myAddress) public view returns (uint); } 1. For one, we're only declaring the functions we want to interact with — in this case getNum — and we don't mention any of the other functions or state variables. 2. Secondly, we're not defining the function bodies. Instead of curly braces ({ and }), we're simply ending the function declaration with a semi-colon (;). Interacting with other contracts.  In this way, your contract can interact with any other contract on the Ethereum blockchain, as long they expose those functions as public or ext...
