typeandcastLibrary "typeandcast"
Contains the following methods:
_type() - Returns the type of the variable in the forms "int", "array", "matrix"
_type_item() - Returns the type of the variable or of the element (for array/matrix). (e.g. `arrayFloat._type_item()` returns 'float').
_type_struct() - Returns the type of the structure only (i.e. "array" or "matrix"), for simple types (like e.g. `int`) returns "simple". (e.g. `arrayFloat._type_struct()` returns 'array').
_tona() - Casts na to the type of the parent object. (e.g. for an `int x` calling `x.tona()` returns `int(na)`
(inspired by the works of @kaigouthro and @faiyaz7283)
The _type() / _type_item() / _type_struct() methods are available for the following types:
int
float
bool
string
color
line
label
box
table
linefill
int
float
bool
string
color
line
label
box
table
linefill
matrix
matrix
matrix
matrix
matrix
matrix
matrix
matrix
matrix
matrix
The `tona()' method is available only for the simple types (except `linefill`, coundn't make it work for it)
Please see the descriptions in the script.
