How it works

A list (suchi) keeps values in order inside square brackets. lambai counts the items, fal_suchi[0] reads the first one (positions start at 0) and jodo adds a new item to the end.

An object (vastu) keeps named values inside curly braces. You read a field with a dot, as in vishleshan.nama. The + between "v" and the version string joins two pieces of text into one.

Notice that when a whole list is printed, AltFLang shows it in square brackets with commas, and text items appear without quotes.
