My first Lua library/API/thing! (From another Lua half-noob)

<< < (3/3)

MrPresident:
Don't confuse GMod's API with glua.

GLua (at least as far as I understand) is just Garry's modified lua.

Neku:
GLua is a mix of coding languages. Not gmod functions.

Megiddo:
I'm still angry about Garry adding "!=" and "//". What a great way to encourage horrible coding practices.

MrPresident:
I used to use ! as a negate until I realized that it wasn't true lua. After that I just started using 'not' like you're supposed to.

Though "!=" isn't Lua, "~=" is.
For readability sake, which MrPresident does very well, "not" is recommended following Team U's recommendations of how to program for Ulysses projects.
