``` coffeescript
|
|
# CoffeeScript is a hipster language.
|
|
# It goes with the trends of many modern languages.
|
|
# So comments are like Ruby and Python, they use hashes.
|
|
|
|
###
|
|
Block comments are like these, and they translate directly to '/ *'s and '* /'s
|
|
for the resulting JavaScript code.
|
|
|
|
You should understand most of JavaScript semantices
|
|
before continuing.

# Functions:
|
|
square = (x) -> x * x #=> var square = function(x) { return x * x; }

|
# Ranges:
|
|
list = [1..5] #=> var list = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
