The Lua language has allowed misspelled, or uninitialized, variables to be used in a script which can eventually cause "script error" while giving no other indication of the misspelled name or invalid data.
Also, unlike wp:templates which can be run interactively by edit-preview, the Lua script must be tested by show-preview (or run preview) of another page which uses a template which #invokes the Lua module being edited. In general, make one small change at a time, do a run show-preview, and save after a few good changes to have a version to ...
Lua scripts may load extension modules using require, [20] just like modules written in Lua itself, or with package.loadlib. [22] When a C library is loaded via require ( 'foo' ) Lua will look for the function luaopen_foo and call it, which acts as any C function callable from Lua and generally returns a table filled with methods.
Core uses Lua for user scripts. [5] CRYENGINE uses Lua for user scripts. [6] Custom applications for the Creative Technology Zen X-Fi2 portable media player can be created in Lua. Damn Small Linux uses Lua to provide desktop-friendly interfaces for command-line utilities without sacrificing much disk space.
Fish (or friendly interactive shell- stylized in lowercase) is a Unix-like shell with a focus on interactivity and usability. Fish is designed to be feature-rich by default, rather than highly configurable. [5]
The string-search functions in Lua script can run extremely fast, comparing millions of characters per second. For example, a search of a 40,000-character article text, for 99 separate words (passed as 99 parameters in a template), ran within one second of Lua CPU clock time.
The term status effect can be applied both to changes that provide a character an advantage (increased attributes, defensive barriers, regeneration), and those that hinder the character (decreased attributes, incapacitation, degeneration). [2] Especially in MMORPGs, beneficial effects are referred to as buffs, and hindering effects are called ...
Short-circuit evaluation, minimal evaluation, or McCarthy evaluation (after John McCarthy) is the semantics of some Boolean operators in some programming languages in which the second argument is executed or evaluated only if the first argument does not suffice to determine the value of the expression: when the first argument of the AND function evaluates to false, the overall value must be ...
