iterate & concatenation example
VladimirAlexiev opened this issue · comments
https://w3c.github.io/N3/spec/#iterate_example claims the output will be
1. flash
2. superman
3. spiderman
But I think it will be something like this:
1. http://example.org/#flash<br />2. http://example.org/#superman<br />3. http://example.org/#spiderman<br />
I think you need to apply some function to extract the local name,
and explain that <br />
is a way to denote newline in HTML

True, it should be <br>
instead of <br />
.
@VladimirAlexiev @domel you should be able to add your corrections & updates to this PR: #143
I applied one of your suggested corrections.
(or, feel free to create your own PR)
@domel <br/>
is the newer better way to write <br>
.
My point is that the concat outputs BRs, not new lines.
@william-vw thanks, I'll work on some patches.
@VladimirAlexiev Yes, I'm referring to <br>
becasue you mentioned it. And I disagree that <br />
is newer and better than <br>
. HTML Living Standard (and W3C HTML5) propose two ways to write new lines: standard, popular one with HTML MIME type: <br>
, and those who want to use XHTML (XML-based HTML) and use XHTML MIME type: <br />
. Nowadays, almost no one serves web pages as XHTML (or XML). The vast majority use HTML, so <br>
makes more sense. BTW, even if for some reason we want to glorify XHTML, the space before the slash is not needed.
As long as we're nitpicking...
True, XHTML doesn't require the space in <br />
, but the tooling you're pushing your XHTML through, including (still) some browsers may choke on <br/>
. On the other hand, so far as I know, none choke on <br />
when found in XHTML nor (again so far as I know) modern HTML.
Also, "MIME types" is the old name for what have been more properly called "Media Types" since RFC 1590 in March 1994.
But I think it will be something like this:
Note that you can try all examples in the N3 editor (link at the right top of each example box):
https://w3c.github.io/N3/spec/#iterate_example
More specifically, the example will lead to:
:race :entries "0. :flash<br />".
:race :entries "1. :superman<br />".
:race :entries "2. :spiderman<br />".
But I felt the simplified list was easier to understand. This PR commit removes the <br />
tag and clarifies these results are the object values.
