The only similarity to ! is that they are unary operators, i.e. they take one operand.
Got it. I just looked it up and page 51 (of the pdf file numbering) is the only place in the manual that mentions "new" in this sense. It says; ------------------- ! + - new (unary) These operators come before one operand. // logical invert if( !true == false ) <<<"yes">>>; // negative -1 => int foo; // instantiate object new object @=> object @ bar; -------------- That last line could use some explanation as far as I'm concerned. I understand we are creating a new object and asigning it but then what? The second "@" is very confusing to me. Eventually it seems to be called "bar" but then why do we need the "@=>" and mention "object" again? This one line is used to explain what "new" does and as far as I can tell two forms of asignment at the same time. To put it bluntly; that's too much for me in on go without context. I propose simplifying that line and explaining the principles hinted at in some more depth in their own sections; I stared at that line for quite a while. Kas.
