Well for starters, where is the actual printCentered function?
It makes more sense if you could tell us or something...

If you are talking about how the math works, then look here: Math Library
If you are trying to learn how to make interactive menus, I suggest you look here: A Quick Guide Through Menu Making

printCentred( math.floor(h/2) + 0, ((nDifficulty == 1) and "[  EASY  ]") or "EASY" )

printCentred(): function call.
math.floor(h / 2) + 0: divide h by 2, floor the result and add 0.
Now the "hard" part:
((nDifficulty == 1) and "[ EASY ]") or "EASY"
This is like using an if statement. If nDifficulty equals 1, then return "[ EASY "], else return "EASY".

Printcentred isn't a built in function. I take it you copied this code from someone else's project and want to use it to your own devices but know next to nothing about programming?
