Can someone help please??

Wow I've been very active on the forums lately, But apparently, my CRPL skills bring
me back here again (but at least im learning  :D).

I've been trying to create a CRPL code that sends a user defined amount of spores to
a user defined set of coordinates with a user defined delay, I've had countless attempts
and all i got was a code that compiled, but didn't do what it should.

Could someone show me how to fix it?  (attached as a txt doc, its called tutorial 2 because
I was learning about stuff for CRPL)

Thanks

Try this

Code Select Expand


$x:0
$y:0
$del:150
$no_of_spores:1
if (->no_of_spores 1 gte)
CurrentCoords ->x ->y 1 10 CreateSpore
->del delay
<-no_of_spores 1 sub ->no_of_spores
endif

Unfortunately it did not work  :(, it just sit there looking pretty, it seems as if its just completely missing out the "if" part. Weird.

Same thing J, also same code as hubs' but oh well, mistakes happen. :P

I changed one set_variable (->) to get_variable (<-), but there were three more that had to be changed, try this one:

Code Select Expand


$x:0
$y:0
$del:150
$no_of_spores:1
if (<-no_of_spores 1 gte)
CurrentCoords <-x <-y 1 10 CreateSpore
<-del delay
<-no_of_spores 1 sub ->no_of_spores
endif

Ok Cool it's working now, Thanks J

And so the map making begins....

I wonder if I'm not so good at CRPL because I use python as a coding language.

The thing with CRPL is wrapping your head around RPN (reverse polish notation - and the stack it uses). Anyone who had one of the old HP RPN calculators probably has less trouble with CRPL. :)
