Data Classes

data class User(val id: Long, val name: String) {
    init { require(name.isNotBlank()) }
}

Scope Functions

Function	Context	Returns	Use Case
let	it	Lambda result	Null-safe transforms
apply	this	Same object	Object configuration
run	this	Lambda result	Object scope + result
also	it	Same object	Side effects

Troubleshooting

Issue	Resolution
NPE despite null check	Check platform types from Java
Smart cast fails	Use local variable or let
