In this tutorial you will learn about Ethereum – Solidity for Contract Writing step by step. So without much to do let’s get started.
Solidity is an object-oriented language mainly developed for contract writing. It is a excessive-level language, which inherits traits from C++, Python, and JavaScript. The Solidity compiler compiles your source code into bytecode that runs on Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM).
For quick understanding of the Solidity syntax, look at the sample code in the IDE.
pragma solidity >=0.4.22 <0.6.0;
contract Ballot {
The first line is a directive to the compiler. The 2nd line starts the definition of the contract. Within the contract, you declare variables inclusive of –
address chairperson;
You also can also define structures such as Proposal and create an array of those structure items. Examine this inside the code window.
You may then define a constructor that’s invoked at the time of instantiating a contract.
constructor(uint8 _numProposals) public {
After the constructor, you will define numerous strategies, which are the contract methods. In the sample contract, giveRightToVote is one such technique having the following syntax –
function giveRightToVote(address toVoter) public {
The public keyword makes this approach publicly invokable by any client who has access to to the contract.
Likewise, the sample contract defines three more methods called delegate, vote, and winningProposal. Examine these for your own understanding of the Solidity syntax. These are the prerequisites to writing your own contract. Explaining the full syntax of Solidity is beyond the scope of this tutorial.
