Im trying to port this: http://powdertoy.co....ml?Thread=16546 to cclua and to use bigInt.

I have a (working) program but it doesnt give any output no matter how many times you run it.

Can somebody tell me where is the error?

pastebin: http://pastebin.com/CDPWY8KS

Edit: Im using a new bigInt from https://bitbucket.or...b687/bigint.lua

http://pastebin.com/CDPWY8KS

Now the error is on the line 108: attempt to compare __lt on table and number

doesnt give any output

Any output at all, or just no number output?

Also that yield function is not nessacary, just use sleep(0).

[TurtleHunter]

any output at all just a blank line, and i want to be eficient with the yields but also when i do it i want to wait a sec after so you can see the current value

[CometWolf]

That yield function has got to go then, since it will only wait if your program has been running for over 2 seconds. Replace it with a sleep(1), and the program will wait 1 second between each run.

I found the problem, i forgot that i use negatives number in one point so i cant use bigInt.Nobody knows a computercraft implementation of bigInt that supports negatives of a pure lua one that i can port?


Edit: Nevermind found one, i will port it and use it

Ugh, im getting pretty tired of these. When using someone else's code, use your head and do the logical thing, ask the person who made it.

Year 2000.... right >.>.
That dosen't change the fact that he knows his own code better than we probably ever will, or will ever aspire to. We are here to help you with your code, not someone's code whom we can't ask functional questions of.

Let's tone it back a little bit. Help, fantastic. Don't want to help, don't help. No need to get quite that hostile toward people for asking questions.
