Introduction to Scripts

Scripts are used to retrieve data by consumers. Since very often for obtaining information, consumers choose several possible resources in terms of increasing the level of objectivity. For example, suppose you want to get information about the price of a certain asset. In that case, it is better to receive information from a certain number of exchanges since if you receive information from only one, it can manipulate data and send you invalid data.

Scripts allow you to define a set of data sources from which information will be received, as well as how the received information will be processed. That is, a kind of script is smart contracts that contain logic for operating with data sources and the data itself.

That is, in fact, you can split the script into two logical components:

• A set of data feeds, data from which you want to get.
• A data processing algorithm.

A new script can be added to the platform with an existing account. Thus, everyone can offer their own script for use by other contributors
