About

Creates a list that displays Template parameter in a unified format. This template creates a single entry for the Required template Template:TemplateData.

Data Dictionary Notation (DDN) for types

The Data Dictionary Notation (DDN) is a modified modified BNF notation (which is used in Data Dictionaries) to describes the structure of data entries. The BNF and DDN notation is used in the field of Software engineering (SWE). In this case it describes how types have to be structured.

The used DDN Notation is slightly different than the linked DDN Notation:

  • The upper limit is not superscript
  • Can have a lower limit
  • Can have optional parts
Type Notation Description
Sequence + Sequence of definitions
Alternative [...|...] Only one element out of this list
Repetition {...} Repetition of the definition
Repetition 2 {...} Repetition of the definition with the minimum of two
Repetition {...} 5 Repetition of the definition with the maximum of five
Repetition 1 {...} 6 Repetition of the definition with the minimum of one and the maximum of six
Option (...) Optional definition
Specific value "..." fix definition

Predefined

All predefined Types can be used directly or inside DDNCode

Special Predefined

These predefines are based on the current Template

Type Definition Comment
<name> "{{{<name>}}}" All parameter names of the current template (this means: use the same type as in <name>)
<Template:<name>> "[[Template:<name>]]" Other templates (link required for type; this means: use these template as type; used in nested templates)

Examples

  • String + Number + {param}
  • Number + param

(param is in this example an other parameter of the template)

  • String + " = " + 1 {String} 2
  • String + (Number)
