Zyra includes built-in primitives for string manipulation, type casting, and file system I/O.

String Functions

len(s: String): Int

Returns string length:

const length = len("hello world") // 11

substr(s: String, start: Int, len: Int): String

Extracts a substring:

const sub = substr("zyra language", 0, 4) // "zyra"

trim(s: String): String

Trims whitespace:

const clean = trim("  zyra  ") // "zyra"

contains(s: String, sub: String): Bool

Substring search:

const is_found = contains("zyra lang", "zyra") // true

File System I/O

file_read(path: String): String

Reads entire file text:

const content = file_read("config.txt")

file_write(path: String, content: String): Bool

Writes text to file:

const success = file_write("output.txt", "Zyra compiled content")
