Calling Pattern
Call
local r[, ...] = sl.convert(arg[, ...])
Args
arg1...argN are strings, numbers, or tables of strings and or numbers
Results
r1...rN are (tables of) numbers, strings, or tables of numbers and or strings
Usage Example
local con = sl.convert
local t1 = {123,234,345}
local t2 = con(t1)
print(sl.keyvalstr(t2))
print(con(123))
print(con('EFT'))
print(sl.keyvalstr(con('EFT_GHI_JKL')))
--> 'table keys:values = {'
--> '1:RC,'
--> '2:AH,'
--> '3:FL,'
--> '}'
--> 'RC'
--> '13038'
--> 'table keys:values = {'
--> '1:13038,'
--> '2:5520,'
--> '3:7767,'
--> '}'
Description
Convert takes any number of arguments and attempts to convert them into either easyuo id/types (if the argument was a number) or openeuo numbers (if the argument was a string). The 'sense' of conversion is automatically detected. Will also convert tables of types and strings of types joined with the underscore _ character. Thanks Boydon and Cheffe for the conversion routines used internally.
