To use this module from other Lua modules, first load the module. local mTRC = require ( 'Module:Table row counter' ) You can then count table rows by using the _main function.
This Lua module is used on approximately 50,000 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the module's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own module sandbox . Consider discussing changes at Wikipedia talk:High-risk templates before implementing them.
Contains a functions to help debug the lua modules.It allows to collect and view the values of several variables and/or points in your lua program, from a module (which is usual) or in several modules (which are required from the main module).
This help-page, Help:Lua debugging, explains issues of writing Lua script and debugging the source code, to remove errors or improve performance. Because Lua is a "semi-compiled" interpreted language, it does not prescreen for all common syntax errors, nor detect misspelled variables, which are only found at runtime when seeing the " Script ...
Lua patterns deliberately lack the most complex regular expression constructs (to avoid bloating the Lua code base), where many other computer languages or libraries use a more complete set. Lua patterns are not even a subset of regular expressions, as there are also discrepancies, like Lua using the escape character % instead of \, , and ...
While Lua allows the true and false boolean values, wikicode templates can only express boolean values through strings such as "yes", "no", etc. This module processes these kinds of strings and turns them into boolean input for Lua to process. It also returns nil values as nil, to allow for distinctions between nil and false. The module also ...
Only false and nil are false. Even "" is true. Tables can have both numeric and string entries. The two don't overlap. t [1] is distinct from t ["1"]. Uninitialized variables and nonexistent fields in tables are nil. or and and both have shortcut evaluation. = is assignment, == is equality comparison. not is boolean negation, but ~= is ...
