第五章 ObjectScript
方法和例程都可以用 ObjectScript 编写，但大多数现代代码都是使用方法编写的。方法包含在类中，这允许将类似的方法分组在一起，在类参考中自动生成文档，以及使用 IRIS 的面向对象功能。
这并不意味着routines 不重要。许多有用的系统实用程序都是作为例程编写的，并且在编译类时会生成例程。
示例类
下面显示了一个名为 的示例类，其中包含用 ObjectScript 编写的方法。此示例使我们有机会了解一些常见的 ObjectScript 命令、运算符和函数，并了解代码在方法内的组织方式。
Class User.DemoClass
{
/// Generate a random number.
/// This method can be called from outside the class.
ClassMethod Random() [ Language = objectscript ]
{
set rand=$RANDOM(10)+1 ; rand is an integer in the range 1-10

/// This method can be called from outside the class.
ClassMethod Input() [ Language = objectscript ]
