- 2. BENVOLIO Why, what is Tybalt? MERCUTIO More than Prince of Cats. Oh, he’s the courageous captain of compliments. He fights as you sing prick-song, keeps time, distance, and proportion. He rests his minim rests—one, two, and the third in your bosom. The very butcher of a silk button, a duelist, a duelist, a gentleman of the very first house of the first and second cause. Ah, the immortal passado, the punto reverso, the hai!

- 14. fun main(args: Array<String>) { val numbers = mutableListOf<Int>() val scanner = Scanner(System.`in`) val endOfInput = Regex("X{3}") println("Enter some numbers or three 'X' to finish") while (scanner.hasNextLine()) { if (scanner.hasNext(endOfInput.toPattern())) { break } else if (scanner.hasNextInt()) { numbers += scanner.nextInt() } else { val mysteryText = scanner.nextLine() println("Ignoring $mysteryText") } } //Would be better to use ‘numbers.sum()’ val total = numbers.fold(0, Int::plus) println("Total of numbers is: $total") } A Simple Kotlin Example Points to note: No redundant class No semi-colons Type inference Both ‘val’ and ‘var’ Helper functions String interpolation Simplified collections Interop with Java types Simpler use of FP
