The Ring documentation describes the different data types that can be used to represent values in Ring programs. The main types are Number, String, and List. Number can represent numeric values like integers and doubles. String represents textual data like characters, dates, and times. List represents arrays and collections like dictionaries and trees that can contain multiple data types. Objects in Ring can be instances of Ring classes or C/C++ pointers. Ring aims to provide simple constructs that allow programmers to do anything while also allowing customization through new classes.
In this chapter we are going to get familiar with the basic concepts of object-oriented programming – classes and objects – and we are going to explain how to use classes from the standard libraries of .NET Framework. We are going to mention some commonly used system classes and see how to create and use their instances (objects). We are going to discuss how we can access fields of an object, how to call constructors and how to work with static fields in classes. Finally, we are going to get familiar with the term "namespaces" – how they help us, how to include them and use them.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

UiPath Test Automation using UiPath Test Suite series, part 4
The Ring programming language version 1.3 book - Part 82 of 88
1. Ring Documentation, Release 1.3
4. Object
The first type (Number) is used to represent int, double and Boolean values.
The second type (String) is used to represent char, array of characters, date and time.
The third type (List) is used to represent Arrays of one type, Arrays of more than one type, Hash (Dictionary), Tree,
etc.
The object can be an object created from a Ring class (Any Class) or just a C Pointer that we get from calling a C/C++
function/method.
Why ?
The Ring is designed to give the programmer/developer the most simple constructs that can be used to do everything.
The programmer/developer can customize the language by creating new classes (and use operator overloading) to get
more types that he care about according to the problem domain.
Why ?
Because simple is better, and easy to learn and remember! And this provide flexibility to convert between high level
types that can be represented using the same basic type
68.17 What is the goal of including the “Main” function in Ring?
The main function is very important, you need it when you want to write statements that uses local variables instead
of the Global scope.
Example:
x = 10
myfunc()
See "X value = " + X # here I expect that x will be (10)
# but I will get another value (6) because myfunc() uses x !
Func myfunc
for x = 1 to 5
See x + nl
next
Output:
1
2
3
4
5
X value = 6
Now using the Main function
Func Main
x = 10
myfunc()
See "X value = " + X
Func myfunc
for x = 1 to 5
See x + nl
next
68.17. What is the goal of including the “Main” function in Ring? 788
2. Ring Documentation, Release 1.3
Output
1
2
3
4
5
X value = 10
68.18 Why the list index start from 1 in Ring?
It’s about how we count in the real world, when we have three apples in our hand
we say 1 2 3
We don’t start from 0
The question must be why the other languages start from 0 ?
The answer is, because this is related to the machine and how we deal with values and memory address.
Example
we have array called myarray[5]
In memory : myarray will have an address
The first item will be stored in that address
The second item will come after that address and so on
Now when we need to point to the first item we need the address of myarray
So we type myarray[0] because myarray + 0 result will still point to the first item
for the second item myarray[1] because myarray + 1 result will point to the second item and so on
In Low Level languages or languages near to the machine it’s good to be like this
But for high level language designed for applications it’s better to be natural
Example
mylist = [1,2,3,4,5]
for x = 1 to len(mylist)
see x + nl
next
In the previous example we start from 1 to the length of the array if the index starts from 0 we will write
for x = 0 to len(mylist)-1
or remember the for loop in other languages
for(x=0 ; x<nMax ; x++ )
You will use the < operator !
68.19 Is there constructor methods in Ring?
When you create new object for example
68.18. Why the list index start from 1 in Ring? 789
3. Ring Documentation, Release 1.3
new point
1 - Ring will allocate dynamic memory space to be used for the new object attributes that Ring doesn’t know anything
about them.
2 - Ring will change the current local scope and the current object scope to use the object state created in step (1)
3 - Ring will move the execution to the class Region (After the class name and before any methods)
4 - Any Instructions/Code in the class region will be executed as any Ring code
5 - Control is moved from the class region to the location of (new point) once we reach the end of the class region or
we uses a Return command.
So All attributes that added to the object are dynamic attributes, this mean that you can control what attributes will be
added through the runtime.
Example:
$3D = False
see new point
$3D = True
see new point
class point
x y
if not $3D return ok
z
Output:
x: NULL
y: NULL
x: NULL
y: NULL
z: NULL
You have an option to call init() method directly when you create a new object
This method can do anything with the object attributes as it will be called after creating the object and executing the
class region code.
p1 = new point3d(100,200,300)
see p1
class point3d
x y z
func init p1,p2,p3
x=p1 y=p2 z=p3
68.20 What happens when we create a new object?
1- When you create an object, the class region code will be executed and you will have the object attributes based on
the code in that region
2- Ring don’t care about the object methods until you start calling a method
3- When you call a method, Ring will check the object class and the class parent (if you are using inheritance) and
will collect the methods for you to be used now or later from any object that belong to the same class.
68.20. What happens when we create a new object? 790
4. Ring Documentation, Release 1.3
4- Since methods are dynamic and each object get the method from the class, you can after creating objects, add new
methods and use it with the object or any object created or will be created from the same class.
Example:
o1 = new point {x=10 y=20 z=30}
o2 = new point {x=100 y=200 z =300}
addmethod(o1,"print", func { see x + nl + y + nl + z + nl } )
o1.print()
o2.print()
class point x y z
Output:
10
20
30
100
200
300
68.21 Can we use the attributes by accessing the Getter and Setter
methods?
Yes we can, The setter/getter methods are called automatically when you start using the attributes from outside the
class Also you can call the methods instead of using the attributes. It’s your choice.
Example:
o1 = new Developer
o1.name = "Mahmoud" see o1.name + nl
o1 { name = "Gal" see name }
o1 { name = "Bert" see name }
o1.setname("Marino")
see o1.getname()
Class Developer
name language = "Ring Programming Language"
func setname value
see "Message from SetName() Function!" + nl
name = value + " - " + language
func getname
see "Message from GetName() Function!" + nl + nl
return "Mr. " + name + nl
Output
Message from SetName() Function!
Message from GetName() Function!
68.21. Can we use the attributes by accessing the Getter and Setter methods? 791
5. Ring Documentation, Release 1.3

68.22 Why should a search of global names be made while defining
the class attributes?
The question is why we don’t avoid conflicts with global variable names when we define the class attributes ?
At first remember that using the optional $ mark in the global variables names solve the problem. Also using the Main
function and avoiding global variables may help.
The Answer:
Ring is a dynamic language
We can in the run-time determine the class attributes (Add/Remove)
We can execute (any code) while defining the class attributes
Example (1)
oPerson = new Person
Class Person
See "Welcome to the Ring language"
Example (2)
Customize attributes based on global variable value
$debug = true
oPerson = new Person
see oPerson
Class Person
if $debug date=date() time=time() ok
In the previous example when we have the $debug flag set to true, we will add the Date and Time attributes to the
object state.
Example (3)
Store the object index based on global variable
$ObjectsCount = 0
oPerson = new Person
see oPerson
oPerson2 = new Person
see oPerson2
68.22. Why should a search of global names be made while defining the class attributes? 792
6. Ring Documentation, Release 1.3
Class Person
$ObjectsCount++
nIndex = $ObjectsCount
Output:
nindex: 1.000000
nindex: 2.000000
Common Example:
• Connect to the database then get table columns (Using global Variable/Object).
• Create class attributes based on the column names.
• Later when you modify the database - you may don’t need to modify your code.
It’s flexibility but remember that power comes with great responsibility.
68.23 Why Ring doesn’t avoid the conflict between Global Variables
and Class Attributes Names?
In this use case we have
1 - Global Variable defined without a special mark like $
2 - Class contains Attributes defined using a special syntax (where we type the attribute name directly after the class)
3 - The Attributes are defined in the class region that allows writing code and using global variables
If I will accepted your proposal about changing how Ring find variables in the class region I must break one of the
previous three features which will lead to more problems that are more important than this problem.
I don’t like changing the feature number (1) because I would like to keep Ring code more clean and let the programmer
decide when to use $ or not.
I don’t like changing the feature number (2) because I like this feature and I don’t like forcing the programmer to type
self.attribute
I don’t like changing the feature number (3) because it’s very important in many applications to access global variables
in the class region.
So what was my decision ?
I decided to leave this case for the programmer who will decide what to do to avoid this special case
1 - The programmer can avoid using global variables (Better) and can use the Main function (Optional)
2 - The programmer can use $ before the variable name or any mark like global_ or g_
3 - The programmer can use self.attribute after the class name to define the attributes
In general, for small programs you can use global variables and functions. For large programs, use classes and objects
and small number of global variables or avoid them at all.
68.24 Where can I write a program and execute it?
Run the Ring Notepad where you can write/execute programs.
If you want to run programs using the command line
68.23. Why Ring doesn’t avoid the conflict between Global Variables and Class Attributes Names?793
7. Ring Documentation, Release 1.3
Add Ring/bin folder to the path then
68.25 How to get the file size using ftell() and fseek() functions?
The next function can be used to get the file size without reading the file!
func getFileSize fp
C_FILESTART = 0
C_FILEEND = 2
fseek(fp,0,C_FILEEND)
nFileSize = ftell(fp)
fseek(fp,0,C_FILESTART)
return nFileSize
Note: The previous function take the fp (file pointer) as parameter, We can get the fp from opening the file using
fopen() function.
fp = fopen("filename","r")
see "File Size : " + getFileSize(fp) + nl
Another solution (Read the file)
see len(read("filename"))
68.26 How to get the current source file path?
We can use the next function to get the current source file path then we can add the path variable to the file name
cPath = CurrentPath()
func currentpath
cFileName = filename()
for x = len(cFileName) to 1 step -1
if cFileName[x] = "/"
return left(cFileName,x-1)
ok
next
return cFileName
68.27 What about predefined parameters or optional parameters in
functions?
if you want to use predefined parameters or optional parameters Just accept a list that works like hash/dictionary
Example
sum([ :a = 1, :b = 2])
sum([ :a = 1 ])
sum([ :b = 2 ])
func sum pList
if plist[:a] = NULL pList[:a] = 4 ok
68.25. How to get the file size using ftell() and fseek() functions? 794
8. Ring Documentation, Release 1.3
if plist[:b] = NULL pList[:b] = 5 ok
see pList[:a] + pList[:b] + nl
Output
3
6
6
68.28 How to print keys or values only in List/Dictionary?
If you want to print keys only or values only just select the index of the item (one or two).
Example
C_COUNTRY = 1
C_CITY = 2
mylist = [
:KSA = "Riyadh" ,
:Egypt = "Cairo"
]
for x in mylist
see x[C_COUNTRY] + nl
next
for x in mylist
see x[C_CITY] + nl
next
Output
ksa
egypt
Riyadh
Cairo
68.29 Why I get a strange result when printing nl with lists?
In the next code
list = 1:5 # list = [1,2,3,4,5]
see list + nl
New Line will be added to the list then the list will be printed, the default print of the lists will print a newline at the
end, You added new newline and You have now 2 newlines to be printed.
See <Expr>
The see command just print the final result of the expression, the expression will be evaluated as it
nl = char(13) + char(10) # just a variable that you can change to anything !
The + is an operator
68.28. How to print keys or values only in List/Dictionary? 795
9. Ring Documentation, Release 1.3
string + string ---> new string
string + number ---> new string
number + number ---> new number
number + string ---> new number
list + item —> nothing new will be created but the item will be added to the same list
Exception
number + nl ?> New String
This exception is added to easily print numbers then new line.
No need for this with printing lists because after printing the last item we already get a new line.
68.30 Could you explain the output of the StrCmp() function?
At first remember that you can check strings using ‘=’ operator directly.
see strcmp("hello","hello") + nl +
strcmp("abc","bcd") + nl +
strcmp("bcd","abc") + nl
if the two strings are the same then it returns 0
abc and bcd aren’t the same. in the second line it returns -1 and in the third line it returns 1
In the second line we compare between “abc” and “bcd”
Not equal because the first letter in “abc” = “a” and the first letter in “bcd” = “b”
So we have “a” != “b” and “a” < “b”
So we get output = -1
In the third line we have “bcd” and “abc”
the first letter in “bcd” is “b” and the first letter in “abc” is “a”
So we have “b” != “a” and “b” > “a”
So we get output = 1
Note: ASCII(“a”) = 97 and ASCII(“b”) = 98 So “a” < “b” because 97 < 98
68.31 How to use many source code files in the project?
Example:
I have the next folder
C:LRing
Contains the next files
C:LRingt1.ring
C:LRingmylib.ring
C:LRinglibsmylib2.ring
68.30. Could you explain the output of the StrCmp() function? 796
10. Ring Documentation, Release 1.3
The file t1.ring contains the next code
load "mylib.ring"
load "libsmylib2.ring"
myfunc()
test()
The file mylib.ring contains the next code
func myfunc
see "message from myfunc"+nl
The file libsmylib2.ring contains the next code
func test
see "message from test" + nl
from the folder C:LRing
If Ring is not added to the path you can add it or use the next command
set path=%path%;c:ringbin;
Where c:ring is the Ring folder
Now run
Ring t1.ring
Output
message from myfunc
message from test
68.32 Why this example use the GetChar() twice?
The GetChar() function accept one character from the keyboard buffer
In this example
While True
See "
Main Menu
(1) Say Hello
(2) Exit
"
Option = GetChar()
GetChar() GetChar() # End of line
# the previous two lines can be replaced with the next line
# Give Option
if Option = 1
see "Enter your name : " give cName
see "Hello " + cName
else
bye
ok
End
68.32. Why this example use the GetChar() twice? 797
