           Summary: YaST Documentation, YCP Language, The bracket operator,
                    Mixed map/list access - Example is wrong
           Product: openSUSE.org
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Minor
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: Documentation
        AssignedTo: fs@novell.com
        ReportedBy: arthursv@linux.vnet.ibm.com

          Found By: Other

On the YaST documentation (SLES 11.1 as reference, but all docs I saw were
wrong),in the "The YaST Programming Language - YCP" section, on Chapter 6.7.2.3
(Mixed map/list access), says:

list  > list_of_maps = [
        $[1:2],
        $[3:4],
        $[5:6]
    ];
    // returns true
    return (list_of_maps[1,0]:0 == three);

The return line is wrong (it's copied from another section of the documentation
where this return is right, probably some copy and paste issue. An example for
the return line to be right would be:

// returns true
return (list_of_maps[1,3]:0 == 4);

Or to be more concise with other examples:

list  > list_of_maps = [
        $[0:1],
        $[2:3],
        $[4:5]
    ];
    // returns true
    return (list_of_maps[1,2]:0 == three);
