I can add one thing I still cannot manage to find the correct way to do :

var a : String?? = "deniz" // one or more optional 
var b: String? = .... ( get from a to b )

@bluesign This issue is meant for the Cadence team to use Cadence and the Flow tools to build something, to experience them as developers do, and find gaps and bugs along the way. If you have a problem, please open a separate issue, thanks!
