Lua
-- What we've learn:
|
|
-- - [x] Open a file as read (same signature as python's open(<file>[, mode]))
|
|
-- - [x] Read file line-by-line
|
|
-- - [x] Lua's iterator can be a generator function
|
|
-- - [x] string -> number with tonumber()
|
|
-- - [x] Syntactic sugar on collection length (or any that implements :len()): #<var>
|
|
-- - [x] `print(..args)`; printing a nil yields an empty space. print also formats as a fancy table
|
|
-- ```
|
|
-- > print(1,2,3,4)
|
|
-- 1 2 3 4
|
|
-- > print(100, 200, 300, 400)
|
|
-- 100 200 300 400
|
|
-- ```
|
|
-- - [x] CLI arguments are globally `arg`. arg[0] is the location of script, arg[1] is the first cli arg
|
|
-- - [x] There is no loop-`continue` in Lua
|
|
