The Incan Book (Basics)

This is a linear tutorial track intended for new readers.

13 chaptersBasics → types → programs → tests

Goals:

• learn the core language fundamentals with runnable examples
• keep pages short and sequential (next/prev)
• avoid mixing “how-to” and “reference” into the main learning flow

Chapters

01Hello world 02Values, variables, and types 03Functions 04Control flow 05Modules, imports, and module-owned state 06Errors: Result, Option, and ? 07Strings and formatting 08Collections and iteration 09Enums and better match 10Models vs classes 11Traits and derives 12Newtypes and stronger types 13Unit tests

Notes

• Canonical install/build/run guidance lives under Tooling: Install, build, and run.
• Canonical formatting/style guidance lives in the language reference: Incan Code Style Guide.
• The generated language reference is discoverable under Language → Reference: Language reference (generated).
