60 Imports

An import gives this file a short name for a public declaration in another package. Here abs comes from the standard library's std.math; no project setup is needed for this one-file program.

import std.math.abs

main() {
  Integer distance = abs(value: -7)
  printLine(distance)
}

Run from the repository root:

norm run norm/tests/docs/tour/imports.norm

Expected output:

7

Try it: Remove the import and inspect the unresolved name error.

Precise rules: Import system.
