Introduction to JASS

[samir555]

i ddidnt understand this piece here

JASS:

function Trig_JASS_test_Actions takes nothing returns nothing
 local integer a = 2
 local integer array b
    set b[a] = 5
    set b[a+1] = 7
    set b[a+2] = b[a+1]-b[a] 
    set b[1356] = b[a+2] + 335
    call DisplayTextToForce( GetPlayersAll(), I2S(b[a]) )
    call DisplayTextToForce( GetPlayersAll(), I2S(b[a+1]) )
    call DisplayTextToForce( GetPlayersAll(), I2S(b[a+2]) )
    call DisplayTextToForce( GetPlayersAll(), I2S(b[1356]) )
endfunction

i just dont get how if b is the array it comes firrst when a is the integer. it just dioesnt make sense id like this to be explained tyty

[Vexorian]

I don't think I understand the question if you mean why b[a] ? well that's the syntax it is like saying the element number a of the b array.

5
7
2
337

Fixed some typos, (re)added the solutions to the challenges and a link to the "triggers in JASS" tutorial

I have some trouble with this:

JASS:

function Msg takes string s returns nothing
    call DisplayTextToForce( GetPlayersAll(), s )
endfunction

function AddSubstract takes integer a, integer b returns nothing
   set udg_r1=a+b
   set udg_r2=a-b
endfunction

function Trig_JASS_test_Actions takes nothing returns nothing
 local integer a=14
 local integer b=56
    call AddSubstract takes(a,b)
    call Msg("a= "+I2S(a))
    call Msg("b= "+I2S(b))
    call Msg("The Addition is "+I2S(udg_r1))
    call Msg("The Substraction is "+I2S(udg_r2))
endfunction

When I save the map, it gives me a compile error saying Line 92: expected '('. Line 92 is call AddSubstract takes (a,b). What am I doing wrong?

[Blade.dk]

JASS:

    call AddSubstract takes(a,b)

Should be

JASS:

    call AddSubstract(a,b)

Whats going wrong? what do you need help with?

[quote=Anitarf]As far as I remember, the fibonacci sequence is only defined that each next number is a sum of two prequels, and the first two numbers are defined as you please. There are therefore infinite fibonacci sequences, but the most "common" is indeed 1,1,2,3,5... but I think you can easily have 1,3,4,7,11,18...

You cant have 1,3. you would need 1,1,2 to make 3!

[Vexorian]

why?

you can have the def
an= an-1 + an-2

then you obviously need to define a1 and a2 and they can be whatever arbitrary number you want

common.j functions are natives and are declared like functions, they are only different in their declaration because they have the name native instead of function.

But when calling them you use the same rules as when calling any function.

Some of the things we have used are common.j natives:

After this part in the tutorial, the page starts to break up. It repeats trigger and JASS windows and is completely unreadable. (Screenshot will be supplied if needed.) Any idea why this happens? (Doesnt happen on any other tutorial or website, happens on any computer I try.)

[Thunder_Eye]

Aye, just noticed it is the same to me

[Vexorian]

It doesn't happen to me, I would blame your web browser for that. Sorry but I can't fix browser bugs.

Edit: Tested on Firefox 2 and Opera.

[The-Cata]

So... If I am using Firefox 2, is there anything I can do to fix this?
