V supports for loops:
for i in 0..5
println(i)
Previous V PDF solutions were experimental. The new pdf module (vlib/pdf) is production-ready, supporting:
If you cannot find an exact match for your learning style, create a personalized PDF using V's own tooling. This is surprisingly effective and gives you the ultimate "new" resource. getting started with v programming pdf new
Step 1: Aggregate the latest source documentation
v doc net/http --output markdown > http_doc.md
v doc os --output markdown > os_doc.md
Step 2: Download the official tutorial repository If you are a hands-on learner, this is
git clone https://github.com/vlang/tutorials
cd tutorials
Step 3: Use Pandoc to merge and convert to PDF
pandoc tutorials/README.md tutorials/getting_started.md \
http_doc.md os_doc.md -o v_programming_new.pdf \
--toc --toc-depth=2 --pdf-engine=xelatex
Why this is better than a generic PDF: You now have a PDF that contains exactly your machine’s V version, the official tutorials, and fresh standard library docs. Previous V PDF solutions were experimental
