# How it works ? ## The standard This is a ERC20 token so it has all the function you would expect from it. The getters: ```Solidity // to get the full name of the token (in this case Kanel42) function name() public view returns (string) // to get the symbol of the token (in this case KNL42) function symbol() public view returns (string) // to get the number of decimals (number of token * 10^decimals to get the number of token) function decimals() public view returns (uint8) // to get the total supply that can be minted (in this case 8000(000000)) function totalSupply() public view returns (uint256) // to get the balance of an address function balanceOf(address _owner) public view returns (uint256 balance) // to know how much the _spender can send on behalf of the _owner function allowance(address _owner, address _spender) public view returns (uint256 remaining) ``` The member functions: ```Solidity // to transfer tokens to another address (_to) function transfer(address _to, uint256 _value) public returns (bool success) // to transfer tokens on behalf of _from to another address (_to) function transferFrom(address _from, address _to, uint256 _value) public returns (bool success) // to approve a certain amount to a _spender that can send token on your behalf function approve(address _spender, uint256 _value) public returns (bool success) ``` Events: ```Solidity // is sent when a transfer is successful event Transfer(address indexed _from, address indexed _to, uint256 _value) // is sent when an approval is successful event Approval(address indexed _owner, address indexed _spender, uint256 _value) ``` And there is also another function for minting the token: ```Solidity // the _value determine how much to mint (in *(10^decimals)) function mint(uint256 _value) public ```
