LUA learning topic


Igy

Question

Hi, I’m new to LUA and actually newer did the programing, except the pascal on high school J. However I like to learn the new staff, best way for me is learning by doing. I developed many block scenes and converted them into LUA to understand the way it works, but still have some questions I believe if answered, other users will find useful as well.

This topic should be for explanation how LUA works.  

 

First question what is tempfunc() for and how to use it?

Could you share the code where tempfunc() appears?

 

Usually tempfunc is the name of temporary function created by user.

  • During my LUA learning evenings, I convert block scenes to LUA and I try to understand the logic. One of the simple scenes is attached. Goal is to turn on the socket at specified time during the selected days of the week. When I covert the ice to LUA, it looks like this:

    and only thing I don't know what is about is the tempFunc in it.

    Exactly as I thought, the tempFunc() is a local function and not part of  LUA language.

    Since the code is using setTimeout () (to create a loop for every minute) it is required to call a function, which is in this case tempFunc()

     

    Just to exercise you can change the name to any other and it will work.
