Hello!

I don't have much to add other than that Colloquy is a very nice (and free) IRC client for Mac. (I also prefer this additional chat style: Succinct)

Good luck!

Well yeah. Right.

I was being lazy, using mathematics symbols to avoid typing english words, but this was a bad context to be lazy in that way.

I've run into this problem, too. Do you know of a workaround (other than to just not use it)?

Depending on what you're measuring, you may want to consider disabling the garbage collector completely with collectgarbage('stop') at the beginning. Otherwise, that's exactly how I do it. You could also look into using something like luaProfiler or pepperfish (the latter is much easier to set up).

Well it does. You just can't use them if you need nil and false to be separate values. In Lua, result = C and A or B is the same as result = C ? A : B in other languages, except for the single situation in which you want to assign a value of false to the result if C is true (in which case you have t...

Heh, Robin beat me to it. Anyway, the point is that and/or assignments can lead to hard-to-track bugs if you're using them with boolean values.

Code: Select all

Unless someDefaultValue is false, in which case the OP's solution is the only way to do it.

What about the case where the default value can also be false I think this should still work: function my_func(someArg) someArg = someArg or false end However, an easy bug to run into is the case where someArg is false (assuming someDefaultValue is not false): local someDefaultValue = 20 function m...

It's still less efficient to create a new image each time than to just add the extra data to the same framebuffer Unless I'm misunderstanding you, I don't think you can do this in Love 0.7.2, since framebuffers are cleared automatically each time you draw to them. (Though I believe this is fixed in...
