### Access point components with array notation

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/datatypes.html

Shows how to read and write individual components of a point using the [] operator. The example gets the y component and sets the x component.

```osl
    point P;
    float y = P[1];   // get the y component
    P[0] = 0.5;       // set the x component

```

--------------------------------

### pointcloud_search example

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/stdlib.html

Searches a point cloud for the closest points within a radius and retrieves attributes. The example prints the number of found particles and their positions and colors. Note that the point cloud is created if it does not exist and initialized from disk if a matching file is found.

```OSL
      float r = 3.0;
      point pos[10];
      color col[10];
      int n = pointcloud_search ("particles.ptc", P, r, 10,
                                 "position", pos, "color", col);
      printf ("Found %d particles within radius %f of (%p)\n", r, P);
      for (int i = 0;  i < n;  ++i)
          printf ("  position (%f) -> color (%g)\n", pos[i], col[i]);

```

### Example shader group serialization

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/shadergroups.html

This example shows a complete shader group description using the `param`, `shader`, and `connect` statements. It sets pending parameters, declares shader instances, and connects outputs to inputs. Note that parameters are applied to the next `shader` statement, and connections require the source layer to precede the destination layer.

```osl
param string name "rings.tx" ;      # set pending `name'
param float scale 3.5 ;             # set pending `scale'
shader "texturemap" "tex1" ;        # tex1 layer, picks up `name', `scale'
param string name "grain.tx" ;
shader "texturemap" "tex2" ;
param float gam 2.2 ;
shader "gamma" "gam1" ;
param float gam 1.0 ;
shader "gamma" "gam2" ;
param color woodcolor 0.42 0.38 0.22 ;       # example of a color param
shader "wood" "wood1" ;
connect tex1.Cout gam1.Cin ;        # connect tex1's Cout to gam1's Cin
connect tex2.Cout gam2.Cin ;
connect gam1.Cout wood1.rings ;
connect gam2.Cout wood1.grain ;

```

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/stdlib.html

Retrieves attributes for a list of point indices obtained from pointcloud_search. The example fetches a float attribute and a float[4] attribute into separate arrays. Returns 1 on success, 0 on failure (e.g., type mismatch, invalid indices, or unknown file).

```OSL
    float r = 3.0;
    int indices[10];
    int n = pointcloud_search ("particles.ptc", P, r, 10,
                               "index", indices);
    float temp[10];         // presumed to be "float" attribute
    float quaternions[40];  // presumed to be "float[4]" attribute
    int ok = pointcloud_get ("particles.ptc", indices, n,
                             "temperature", temp,
                             "quat", quaternions);

```

--------------------------------

### Constructor examples for color and point

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/syntax.html

Shows how to construct color and point values using constructor syntax. Constant arguments make the constructed value a compile-time constant with no runtime cost.

```osl
    color (1, 0.75, 0.5)
    point ("object", 1, 2, 3)

```

--------------------------------

### Array declaration, initialization, access, and invalid multi-dimensional example

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/datatypes.html

Illustrates array declaration, initialization, element access, and shows that multi-dimensional arrays are not supported.

```osl
    float d[10];                       // Declare an uninitialized array
    float c[3] = { 0.1, 0.2, 3.14 };   // Initialize the array

    float f = c[1];                    // Access one element

    float d[10][3];                    // Invalid, multi-dimensional arrays not supported

```

--------------------------------

### OSL operator overloading example with __operator__add__

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/syntax.html

Shows how to define a struct and overload the '+' operator for it using the special function name __operator__add__. The example defines a vector4 struct, implements addition, and demonstrates the overloaded operator in a shader, printing the result.

```OSL
    struct vector4 {
        float x, y, z, w;
    };

    vector4 __operator__add__ (vector4 a, vector4 b) {
        return vector4 (a.x+b.x, a.y+b.y, a.z+b.z, a.w+b.w);
    }

    shader test ()
    {
        vector4 a = vector4 (.2, .3, .4, .5);
        vector4 b = vector4 (1, 2, 3, 4);

        vector4 c = a + b;   // Will call __operator__add__(vector4,vector4)
        printf ("a+b = %g %g %g %g\n", c.x, c.y, c.z, c.w);
    }

```

--------------------------------

### Type cast examples: C-style and constructor-style

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/syntax.html

Illustrates casting between types using C-style parentheses and C++-style constructor calls. Both forms are equivalent. Note that casting a point to a color is allowed.

```osl
      (vector) P            /* cast a point to a vector */
      (point) f             /* cast a float to a point */
      (color) P             /* cast a point to a color! */

      vector (P)            /* Means the same thing */
      point (f)
      color (P)

```

### Using arraylength() to get array size

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/datatypes.html

Shows how to use the built-in function arraylength() to get the number of elements in an array.

```osl
    float c[3];
    int clen = arraylength(c);        // should return 3

```

--------------------------------

### regex_search examples with POSIX regex

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/stdlib.html

Illustrates regex_search usage: simple boolean checks, filling a match array with start/end indices, and extracting sub-expressions using parentheses. The example shows that regex_search returns 1 for a substring match and 0 otherwise, and that the results array is filled with character indices (start and end) for the overall match and each sub-expression.

```osl
    r = regex_search ("foobar.baz", "bar");    //  = 1
    r = regex_search ("foobar.baz", "bark");   //  = 0

    int match[2];
    regex_search ("foobar.baz", match, "[Oo]{2}") = 1
                                      (match[0] == 1, match[1] == 3)
    substr ("foobar.baz", match[0], match[1]-match[0]) = "oo"

    int match[6];
    regex_search ("foobar.baz", match, "(f[Oo]{2}).*(.az)") = 1
    substr ("foobar.baz", match[0], match[1]-match[0]) = "foobar.baz"
    substr ("foobar.baz", match[2], match[3]-match[2]) = "foo"
    substr ("foobar.baz", match[4], match[5]-match[4]) = "baz"

```

               float Kd = 0.5,
               color woodcolor = color (.7, .5, .3),
               string texturename = "wood.tx",
           /* Computed from an earlier parameter */
               color ringcolor = 0.25 * woodcolor,
           /* Fixed-length array */
               color paintcolors[3] = { color(0,.25,0.7), color(1,1,1),
                                        color(0.75,0.5,0.2) },

Shows how to read and write point-like components using named fields x, y, and z as synonyms for indices [0], [1], and [2]. The comment indicates that P.y gets the [1] component and P.x sets the [0] component.

```osl
    float yval = P.y;    // get the [1] or y component
    P.x = 0.5;           // set the [0] or x component

```

--------------------------------

### Variable declaration examples

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/syntax.html

Illustrates various ways to declare variables in OSL: uninitialized, with constant initializer, with computed initializer, and multiple variables of the same type in one declaration.

```osl
    float a;           // Declare; current value is undefined
    float b = 1;       // Declare and assign a constant initializer
    float c = a*b;     // Computed initializer

}

```

--------------------------------

### pointcloud_write example

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/stdlib.html

Saves a tuple of attributes at a given position in a named point cloud. The point cloud is saved when the frame finishes computing. Returns 1 on success, 0 on failure (e.g., attribute name/type mismatch across positions).

```OSL
      color C = ...;
      int ok = pointcloud_write ("particles.ptc", P, "normal", N, "color", C);

```

--------------------------------

### if/else conditional example

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/syntax.html

Shows an if/else block in OSL. The condition can be any valid expression; numeric values are true if nonzero, strings true if nonempty, closures true if empty. The else branch is optional.

```osl
    if (s > 0.5) {
        x = s;
        y = 1;
    } else {
        x = s+t;
    }

```

--------------------------------

### for loop with local variable declaration

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/syntax.html

Example of a for loop in OSL. The initialization may declare variables scoped locally to the loop. Loop conditions follow the same truthiness rules as if conditions.

```osl
      for (int i = 0;  i < 3;  ++i) {
          ...
      }

```

--------------------------------

### Structure declaration and use

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/syntax.html

Demonstrates how to define a structure type, declare structure variables, initialize them, and access fields using the dot operator. Also notes that structure fields cannot be other structures.

```osl
    struct ray {
        point pos;
        vector dir;
    };

    ray r;   // Declare a structure
    ray s = { point(0,0,0), vector(0,0,1) };  // declare and initialize
    r.pos = point (1, 0, 0);  // Assign to one field

```

--------------------------------

### Construct point, vector, and normal from floats

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/datatypes.html

Shows how to create point-like values using constructors with three float arguments. The values are interpreted in 'common' space by default.

```osl
        point (0, 2.3, 1)
        vector (a, b, c)
        normal (0, 0, 1)

```

--------------------------------

### Scoping example with inner and outer variables

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/syntax.html

Shows how variable scoping works in OSL. Variables declared inside a block are only visible within that block, and references resolve to the innermost scope. The example demonstrates that assigning 'b = a' uses the inner 'a', and referencing 'c' outside its scope causes an error.

```osl
    float a = 1;      // Call this the "outer" 'a'
    float b = 2;
    {
        float a = 3;  // Call this the "inner" 'a'
        float c = 1;
        b = a;        // b gets 3, because a is resolved to the inner scope
    }
    b += c;           // ERROR -- c was only in the inner scope

```

--------------------------------

### String literal concatenation example

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/datatypes.html

Shows that two string literals separated only by whitespace are automatically concatenated into a single string literal.

```osl
    "foo"  "bar"

```

--------------------------------

### Operator Overloading

struct vector4 {
    float x, y, z, w;
};

vector4 __operator__add__ (vector4 a, vector4 b) {
    return vector4 (a.x+b.x, a.y+b.y, a.z+b.z, a.w+b.w);
}

shader test ()
{
    vector4 a = vector4 (.2, .3, .4, .5);
    vector4 b = vector4 (1, 2, 3, 4);

    vector4 c = a + b;   // Will call __operator__add__(vector4,vector4)
    printf ("a+b = %g %g %g %g\n", c.x, c.y, c.z, c.w);
}
```

### Operator Overload Function Names

```

--------------------------------

### Point constructor with coordinate space

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/stdlib.html

Shows that `point (space, x, y, z)` is equivalent to `transform (space, "common", point(x,y,z))` for constructing point-like values in a named coordinate system.

### Valid and invalid OSL identifiers

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/lexical.html

Shows examples of valid identifiers (opacity, Long_name42, _foo) and invalid ones (2smart, bigbuck$) with comments explaining why.

```osl
    opacity       // valid
    Long_name42   // valid - letters, underscores, numbers are ok
    _foo          // valid - ok to start with an underscore

    2smart        // invalid - starts with a numeral
    bigbuck$      // invalid - $ is an illegal character

```

--------------------------------

### texture() and environment() Options

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/stdlib.html

Optional parameters for the texture() and environment() functions, including missingcolor, colorspace, alpha, and errormessage.

```APIDOC
## texture() and environment() Options

### Description
Optional parameters that can be supplied to the texture() and environment() functions to control behavior for missing textures, color space, alpha channel storage, and error handling.

### Parameters
- **"missingcolor"** (color) - Optional - Supplies a missing color (and alpha value) used for missing or broken textures instead of treating it as an error. If not supplied, missing textures are reported as errors.
- **"missingalpha"** (float) - Optional - Supplies a missing alpha value used for missing or broken textures.
- **"colorspace"** (string) - Optional - Specifies the color space of the data in the texture file. (Added in OSL 1.14.)
- **"alpha"** (float variable) - Optional - The alpha channel (presumed to be the next channel following the channels returned by the environment() call) will be stored in the specified variable. Allows RGBA lookups in a single call.
- **"errormessage"** (string variable) - Optional - If supplied, any error messages generated by the texture system will be stored in the specified variable rather than issuing error calls to the renderer. The error message will be "" if no error occurred.
```

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/datatypes.html

Shows how to create color values from RGB triples, other color spaces like "hsv", or a single float replicated to all channels. All expressions return colors in "rgb" space, with an implied transformation when specifying a non-RGB space.

```osl
    color (0, 0, 0)              // black
    color ("rgb", .75, .5, .5)   // pinkish
    color ("hsv", .2, .5, .63)   // specify in "hsv" space
    color (0.5)                  // same as color (0.5, 0.5, 0.5)
```

--------------------------------

### Construct matrix from scalar or 16 floats

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/datatypes.html

Shows how to create a matrix from a single float (0 or 1) and from 16 floats in row-major order. The single-float form sets diagonal components to that value and others to zero.

```osl
    matrix zero = 0;   // makes a matrix with all 0 components
    matrix ident = 1;  // makes the identity matrix

    // Construct a matrix from 16 floats
    matrix m = matrix (m00, m01, m02, m03, m10, m11, m12, m13, 
                       m20, m21, m22, m23, m30, m31, m32, m33);

    RGBA c = {col,alpha};    // deduce by what is being assigned to

    RGBA add (RGBA a, RGBA b)
    {
        return { a.rgb+b.rgb, a.a+b.a }; // deduce by func return type
    }

    RGBA d = add (c, {{.3,.4,.5}, 0}); // deduce by expected arg type

```

--------------------------------

### Array variable declarations

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/syntax.html

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/bigpicture.html

Example of a displacement shader that converts a bump distance from a specified unit to common units using transformu(). The shader is reusable across scenes with different modeling units.

```OSL
    displacement bumpy (float bumpdist = 1,
                        string bumpunits = "cm")
    {
        // convert bumpdist to common units
        float spacing = transformu (bumpunits, "common", bumpdist);
        float n = noise (P / spacing);
        displace (n);
    }

```

### Accessing color components with array notation in OSL

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/datatypes.html

Shows how to read and write individual color components using the `[]` array access notation, where indices 0, 1, and 2 correspond to red, green, and blue. Accessing an index outside [0...2] is an error.

```osl
    color C;
    float g = C[1];   // get the green component
    C[0] = 0.5;       // set the red component
```

### Access matrix components with array notation

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/datatypes.html

Shows how to read and write individual matrix components using row and column indices. Valid indices are integers from 0 to 3; accessing outside this range is an error.

```osl
    matrix M;
    float x = M[row][col];
    M[row][col] = 1;

```

### Function with unsized array parameter

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/datatypes.html

Demonstrates declaring an array parameter without a length using empty brackets, and using arraylength() inside the function.

```osl
    float sum (float x[])
    {
        float s = 0;
        for (int i = 0;  i < arraylength(x);  ++i)
            s += x[i];
        return s;
    }

```

### Compute a color closure with diffuse()

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/bigpicture.html

Example of a surface shader computing a color closure. The texture lookup returns a numeric color, while diffuse() returns a color closure. The output variable Ci is also a color closure, not a definite numeric color.

```osl
color paint = texture ("file.tx", u, v);
Ci = paint * diffuse (N);

```

### Assemble shader group with renderer API

Source: https://open-shading-language.readthedocs.io/en/v1.15.7.0/bigpicture.html

Pseudo-code showing how to build a shader group with layers and connections using a renderer API. It creates texture, gamma, and wood shader layers and connects their parameters.

```pseudo-code
    ShaderGroupBegin ()
    Shader ("texturemap",               /* shader name */
            "tex1",                     /* layer name */
            "string name", "rings.tx")  /* instance variable */
    Shader ("texturemap", "tex2", "string name", "grain.tx")
    Shader ("gamma", "gam1", "float gam", 2.2)
    Shader ("gamma", "gam2", "float gam", 1)
    Shader ("wood", "wood1")
    ConnectShaders ("tex1",     /* layer name A */
                    "Cout",     /* an output parameter of A */
                    "gam1",     /* layer name B */
                    "Cin")      /* Connect this layer of B to A's Cout */
    ConnectShaders ("tex2", "Cout", "gam2", "Cin")
    ConnectShaders ("gam1", "Cout", "wood1", "rings")
    ConnectShaders ("gam2", "Cout", "wood1", "grain")
    ShaderGroupEnd ()
