Going from Lua 5.2 to PICO-8's Lua

This information applies to the PICO-8 0.1.6 release.

This document is here to help folks with a proficiency in Lua understand the limitations and discrepencies between Lua and PICO-8's Lua.

You can always view the manual or yellowafterlife's extended 0.1.1 manual.

General

  • anything written in uppercase the PICO-8 editor or .p8 is made lowercase by the editor. → editing the .p8 file directly can work
  • print(function() end) outputs the string function instead of the string function: 0x0000000.

What forces layout/reflow. The comprehensive list.

What forces layout / reflow

All of the below properties or methods, when requested/called in JavaScript, will trigger the browser to synchronously calculate the style and layout*. This is also called reflow or layout thrashing, and is common performance bottleneck.

Generally, all APIs that synchronously provide layout metrics will trigger forced reflow / layout. Read on for additional cases and details.

Element APIs

Getting box metrics
  • elem.offsetLeft, elem.offsetTop, elem.offsetWidth, elem.offsetHeight, elem.offsetParent

Hello–
I recently updated to your new snippet, but it violates the Content Security Protocol settings I have in place because it uses `eval`. It there anyway to opt-out of a script that uses `eval`?

Copy stdin to stdout in Java

* In real code, you would just write IOUtils.copy(System.in, System.out),

* This does not catch any exceptions as a) this is just an "exercise" and
* b) all we could do with them is pretty-print them. So let the runtime
* print them for you.

Big list of http static server one-liners

Each of these commands will run an ad hoc http static server in your current (or specified) directory, available at http://localhost:8000. Use this power wisely.

Checkout github pull requests locally

Locate the section for your github remote in the .git/config file. It looks like this:

[remote "origin"]
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
	url = [email protected]:joyent/node.git

Now add the line fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/* to this section. Obviously, change the github url to match your project's URL. It ends up looking like this:

Poker game solver
/*
input is 1 line with 10 cards, black first, white second
cards are sorted by value (suit is disregarded when sorting)
when tested for hand type -- they are sorted again based on the
order of evaluation of the hand when comparing the two, so
full house will put the 3 of a kind highest, then the 2 of a kind.
A pair will have the pair as the last two cards, and the rest
sorted by from lowest to highest. This makes it easy to determine
the winner by comparing down from the top.
