Module stdext

Standard library extensions.

table

table.defaulting(f, nostore)	Create a defaulting table, which returns a default value when indexed with a key that does not exist.
table.contains(tbl, entry)	Check whether a table contains an entry.
table.indexOf(tbl, entry)	Find the index of an entry in a table.
table.readonly(tbl)	Create a read-only proxy for a table.
table.mergeLists(...)	Merge multiple list-like tables into one new table.
table.equals(a, b)	Check whether all keys and values are equal in two tables.

global

safecall(errorhandler, f, ...)

Call a function, or call an error handler with the raised error.

string

titleopts	The options accepted by string.title.
string.title(s[, opts])	Return a copy of the input string with all words changed to title case.
string.split(s, sep[, n])	Split a string by a separator.

table

table.defaulting(f, nostore)

Create a defaulting table, which returns a default value when indexed with a key that does not exist.

Parameters:

• f The function to default values in the table to.
• nostore Optional; if true, the constructed value is only returned from the index operation, and not stored in the table.

Returns:

The constructed table.

table.contains(tbl, entry)

Check whether a table contains an entry.

Parameters:

• tbl The table to check for.
• entry The entry to check for.

Returns:

true if there is some index i between 1 and #tbl such that tbl[i] == entry, otherwise false.

table.indexOf(tbl, entry)

Find the index of an entry in a table.

Parameters:

• tbl table The table to search.
• entry The entry to find.

Returns:

The index of entry in table, or nil if it is not present.

table.readonly(tbl)

Create a read-only proxy for a table. Nested tables are also read-only, unless they are used as keys. Proxy tables are lightweight; the only allocation is an empty table with a shared metatable.

Parameters:

• tbl table The table to make a read-only proxy for.

Returns:

A read-only proxy for the table, which acts as the table when indexed or iterated.

table.mergeLists(...)

Merge multiple list-like tables into one new table.

Parameters:

• ... The tables to merge.

Returns:

table The merged table.

table.equals(a, b)

Check whether all keys and values are equal in two tables.

Parameters:

• a table The first table to check.
• b table The second table to check.

Returns:

bool True if all keys and values are equal in the two tables, i.e. there is no value v such that a[v] ~= b[v].

global

safecall(errorhandler, f, ...)

Call a function, or call an error handler with the raised error.

Parameters:

• errorhandler The function to call if f throws an error. Errors in this function are not caught.
• f The function to call.
• ... The arguments to pass to the function.

Returns:

f(...) if that call does not throw an error, otherwise errorhandler(err, ...).

string

titleopts

The options accepted by string.title.

• wchar string The set of characters to consider as word characters; the default is any non-punctuation non-space character. See the Lua manual's patterns section for details on character sets; the value will be placed in [] for use as a character class. (default "^%p%s")
• lower function The function to lowercase the input. (default string.lower)
• upper function The function to uppercase the input. (default string.upper)

string.title(s[, opts])

Return a copy of the input string with all words changed to title case. Word characters immediately preceded by a non-word character or the start of the string will be uppercased; all other characters will be lowercased.

Parameters:

• s string The string to titlecase.
• opts titleopts The options to use. (optional)

Returns:

string The string with all words changed to title case.

string.split(s, sep[, n])

Split a string by a separator.

Parameters:

• s string The string to split.
• sep string The pattern to split on.
• n integer The maximum number of times to split the string, or zero/nil for unlimited. (optional)

Returns:

table A list of all substrings between the separators, including leading/trailing empty strings if the original string contained leading/trailing separators.
