I am using quoting to generate Julia code. The following is legal Julia code (that is executed correctly), but its display output is not legal Julia code.
julia> cond = quote
dish = 4
dish < 5
end
julia> :($cond ? 10 : 20)
:(if #= REPL[23]:2 =#, dish = 4, #= REPL[23]:3 =#, dish < 5
10
else
20
end)The condition cond is output separated by commas, as if it was a tuple, but it should probably be output enclosed in a begin ... end block, separated by semicolons.
This is the internal representation. It looks correct:
julia> :($cond ? 10 : 20) |> dump
Expr
head: Symbol if
args: Array{Any}((3,))
1: Expr
head: Symbol block
args: Array{Any}((4,))
1: LineNumberNode
line: Int64 2
file: Symbol REPL[23]
2: Expr
head: Symbol =
args: Array{Any}((2,))
1: Symbol dish
2: Int64 4
3: LineNumberNode
line: Int64 3
file: Symbol REPL[23]
4: Expr
head: Symbol call
args: Array{Any}((3,))
1: Symbol <
2: Symbol dish
3: Int64 5
2: Int64 10
3: Int64 20I am using Julia 1.11.0.
