Hey Krakovia
Is there a way to tell what kind of value a storage location holds ?

In my Case

Location 1 is uint256 with value 1
Location 2 is bool with value true
Location 3 is an Array of length 1 with value 223 at 0 index
Location 4 is a mapping

No

You'd have to look at code

Hey Niccolo

Consider I know the storage location of the array.
Is there a way to find the elements that are stored in that slot ?

@karola96 🥺

You want to use a debugger, a getter function or something like Foundry

No….Like if I know the storage location of an array
And I access it using ethers.getStorageAt(contract, location).
It stores the length of the array though

Is there a way to get the stored elements too ?

I feel it has something to do with keccak256( )

But didn’t understand 🥲

Yul + assembly?
Why would you go that deep into storage?
What problem are you try to solve?

I am trying to solve nothing 🥲
I am learning and had this doubt.
If we could get elements stored from the storage location of array or mapping

https://docs.soliditylang.org/en/v0.8.17/internals/layout_in_storage.html

I am sure this has the answer on “how to”
But I wasn’t able to understand it 🥲

Yeah i think you're looking for yul

What’s YUL ?

Not necessarily, if he doesn't need to access that inside the contract itself (which would be weird since it'd be an useless complication) he can just achieve that with web3

Please pm to update my memory about you

This answers your question

Would it be okay if I message you regarding this ? 😅

yes, nothing is "private" in storage

const slotKey = BigNumber.from(solidityKeccak256(["uint256"], [slotNumber]))

then getStorageAt(ca, slotKey.add(i)) where i is index of array

heres good article https://blog.openzeppelin.com/ethereum-in-depth-part-2-6339cf6bddb9/

I got it

Thanks Bro 🤙🏻👍

Been thinking about how to solve it since yesterday 🥲
