Example


contextCount
Lot --> split(x) { ~1 : Split }*

Split --> split(z) { ~1 : Tile }*

Tile --> label("Tile") Color

Color --> case contextCount(intra, "Tile") <= 9 : color(0,1,0)
          else : color(1,0,0)
	
In this example the Lot rule is applied to a single initial shape (intra context). Depending on the size of the shape a different number of tiles is generated by the split operations. The contextCount query is used to color the tiles according to the total number of shapes with label "Tile".
