LEARN SOLIDITY LESSON 1

Contracts. Pragma. State Variables. Integers



An empty contract named HelloWorld would look like this:
All solidity source code should start with a "version pragma" — a declaration of the version of the Solidity compiler this code should use. 

State variables are permanently stored in contract storage. This means they're written to the Ethereum blockchain. Think of them like writing to a DB.
pragma solidity >=0.5.0 <0.6.0;
contract HelloWorld { uint myUnsignedInteger = 10; }

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 6: Require. Inheritance. Import Solidity

LEARN SOLIDITY LESSON Require Solidity. Inheritance Solidity. Import Solidity Require Solidity For that we use require. require makes it so that the function will throw an error and stop executing if some condition is not true function sayHiToBean(string memory _name) public returns (string memory) { // Compares if _name equals "Bean". Throws an error and exits if no require(keccak256(abi.encodePacked(_name)) == keccak256(abi.encodePacked("Bean"))); // If it's true, proceed with the function: return "Hi!"; } Inheritance Solidity This can be used for logical inheritance (such as with a subclass, a Cat is an Animal). But it can also be used simply for organizing your code by grouping similar logic together into different contracts. contract Cat { function catchphrase() public returns (string memory) { return "So Wow CryptoCat"; } } contract BabyCat is Cat { function anotherCatchphrase() public returns (string memory) { re
