| Other Java classes. |
Taak can also work with any Java class available in the classpath.
Java classes in the packages java.lang and java.util do not have to
be qualified. |
Java classes are instantiated using the new operator. |
taak automatically convert between numeric
types as needed. If a binary operator is invoked on an integer argument
and a float argument, the integer argument is automatically converted
to a float. If a float is passed as argument to a function of method that
expects an integer, the float is converted to an integer.
