Values are the elements that are transported over channels and stored in variables. There are eight types of values:
| Name | Summary | Serializable |
|---|---|---|
| exception | An error, which has a name and optional metadata | No |
| null | A single value null, representing “nothing” |
Yes |
| boolean | Either true or false
|
Yes |
| number | A signed arbitrary-precision rational number | Yes, but possibly losing precision |
| string | A sequence of zero or more characters (Unicode Scalar Values) | Yes |
| array | An ordered sequence of zero or more values | If all elements are serializable |
| object | An ordered mapping of unique keys to values | If all keys are strings and all values are serializable |
| function | A representation of a filter, with namespace capturing and pattern matching | No |
