Sprite.overlaps

2024-05-04T15:22:12Z

SebNozzi: Add example

<c>[[Sprite]].overlaps</c> checks whether this sprite overlaps (touches) another one, by
comparing their bounds.

=== Arguments ===

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Parameter Name !! Type !! Meaning
|-
| ''other'' || Sprite or Bounds || object to check for overlap with
|}

=== Usage Notes ===
Use of this requires first defining the [[Sprite.localBounds|localBounds]]
of each sprite.

=== Example ===

<ms>clear

// Load images

wumpusImg = file.loadImage("/sys/pics/Wumpus.png")
muffinImg = file.loadImage("/sys/pics/food/Muffin.png")

// Define sprites

wumpus = new Sprite
wumpus.image = wumpusImg
// Define localBounds for Wumpus!
wumpus.localBounds = new Bounds
wumpus.localBounds.width = wumpusImg.width
wumpus.localBounds.height = wumpusImg.height

muffin = new Sprite
muffin.image = muffinImg
// Define localBounds for muffin!
muffin.localBounds = new Bounds
muffin.localBounds.width = muffinImg.width
muffin.localBounds.height = muffinImg.height

// Push sprites to the display
display(4).sprites.push wumpus
display(4).sprites.push muffin

checkOverlap = function
text.clear
if wumpus.overlaps(muffin) then
print "Eating muffin!"
else
print "No overlap"
end if
end function

// Case 1: No overlap

wumpus.x = 300
wumpus.y = 400

muffin.x = 500
muffin.y = 400

checkOverlap

wait 2

// Case 2: Overlap

wumpus.x += 150

checkOverlap
</ms>

Shuffle

2023-11-18T00:12:38Z

SebNozzi: Change header from "Default value" to "Type"

<c>shuffle</c> randomizes the order of elements in a list, or the mappings from keys to values in a map. This is done in place.

=== Arguments ===

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Parameter Name !! Type !! Meaning
|-
| ''self'' || list or map || object to shuffle
|}

[[Category:Intrinsic Functions]]
[[Category:List Methods]]
[[Category:Map Methods]]

Join

2023-11-17T23:56:30Z

SebNozzi: Change header from "Default value" to "Type"

<c>self.join</c> joins the elements of a list together to form a string.

See also: [[split]]

=== Arguments ===

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Parameter Name !! Type !! Meaning
|-
| ''self'' || list || list to join
|-
| ''delimiter'' || string, default " " || string to insert between each pair of elements.
|}

== Example ==

<ms>[2,4,8].join("-") // returns "2-4-8" </ms>

Slice

2023-11-17T23:42:29Z

SebNozzi: Change header from "Default value" to "Type"

<c>slice</c> returns a subset of a string or list. This is equivalent to using the square-brackets slice operator <c>seq[from:to]</c>, but with ordinary
function syntax.

=== Arguments ===

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Parameter Name !! Type !! Meaning
|-
| ''seq'' || string or list || sequence to get a subsequence of
|-
| ''from'' || number, default || 0-based index to the first element to return (if negative, counts from the end)
|-
| ''to'' || number, optional || 0-based index of first element to *not* include in the result (if negative, count from the end; if omitted, return the rest of the sequence)
|}

== Example ==

<ms>slice("Hello", -2) // returns "lo"
"Hello"[-2:] // equivalent to the above

slice([10,20,30,40,50], 1, 3) // returns [20, 30]
[10,20,30,40,50][1:3] // equivalent to the above</ms>

Replace

2023-11-17T21:49:53Z

SebNozzi: Formatting of Usage Notes

<c>replace</c> replaces all matching elements of a list or map, or substrings of a string, with a new value.

=== Arguments ===

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Parameter Name !! Type !! Meaning
|-
| ''self'' || list, map or string || object to replace elements of
|-
| ''oldval'' || any || value or substring to replace
|-
| ''newval'' || any || new value or substring to substitute where oldval is found
|-
| ''maxcount'' || number, optional || if given replace no more than this many.
|-

|}

=== Usage Notes ===
Lists and maps are mutated in place, and return themselves.

Strings are immutable, so the original string is (of course) unchanged, but a new string with the replacement is returned.

Note that with maps, it is the ''values'' that are searched for and replaced, not the keys.

== Example ==

<ms>"Happy Pappy".replace("app", "ol") // returns "Holy Poly"
[1,2,3,2,5].replace(2, 42) // returns (and mutates to) [1, 42, 3, 42, 5]
d = {1: "one"}; d.replace("one", "ichi"). // returns (and mutates to) {1: "ichi"}</ms>

Remove

2023-11-17T21:06:37Z

SebNozzi: /* Arguments */

<c>remove</c> removes part of a list, map, or string.

See also: [[indexOf]]

=== Arguments ===

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Parameter Name !! Type !! Meaning
|-
| ''self'' || list, map, or string || object to remove something from
|-
| ''k'' || number or string || element index or substring to remove
|}

=== Usage Notes ===
Exact behavior of <c>remove</c> depends on the data type of self:

list: removes one element by its index; the list is mutated in place;
returns null, and throws an error if the given index out of range.

map: removes one key/value pair by key; the map is mutated in place;
returns 1 if key was found, 0 otherwise.

string: returns a new string with the first occurrence of k removed.

May be called with function syntax or dot syntax.

== Example ==

<ms>a=["a","b","c"]; a.remove 1 // leaves a == ["a", "c"]
d={"ichi":"one"}; d.remove "ni" // returns 0
"Spam".remove("S") // returns "pam"</ms>

SebNozzi: Rename column, add argument "k"

<c>remove</c> removes part of a list, map, or string.

See also: [[indexOf]]

=== Arguments ===

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Parameter Name !! Type !! Meaning
|-
| ''self'' || list, map, or string || object to remove something from
|-
| ''k'' || number or string || index or substring to remove
|}

=== Usage Notes ===
Exact behavior of <c>remove</c> depends on the data type of self:

list: removes one element by its index; the list is mutated in place;
returns null, and throws an error if the given index out of range.

map: removes one key/value pair by key; the map is mutated in place;
returns 1 if key was found, 0 otherwise.

string: returns a new string with the first occurrence of k removed.

May be called with function syntax or dot syntax.

== Example ==

<ms>a=["a","b","c"]; a.remove 1 // leaves a == ["a", "c"]
d={"ichi":"one"}; d.remove "ni" // returns 0
"Spam".remove("S") // returns "pam"</ms>

Function

2023-04-24T09:35:08Z

SebNozzi: Link to section

<c>function</c> is a [[:Category:Keywords|keyword]] used to define a subprogram in MiniScript. The term "function" can also refer to such a subprogram.

== Defining a Function ==

A typical function definition looks something like this:

<ms>identifier = function(param1, param2, param3)
// function body
return 42;
end function</ms>

Parameters may have default values. If not otherwise specified, the default value of a parameter is [[null]].

<ms>identifier = function(param1=1, param2="foo", param3)
// function body
return 42;
end function</ms>

If the function takes no parameters, then the declaration would look like this:

<ms>identifier = function
// function body
return 42;
end function</ms>

Unlike some other languages, functions in MiniScript do not have names. The <c>function... end function</c> structure returns a [[#Function_References|function reference]]; typically this is assigned to some variable, and then you can call the function via that variable.

== Calling a Function ==

Any time an identifier (with or without dot syntax) that contains a function reference is evaluated, the function is automatically invoked. [[Parentheses]] are needed around any arguments to the function if the call is part of a larger expression (rather than a command statement). If no arguments are to be passed to the function, then no parentheses are ever needed.

The following are all valid function calls.

<ms>someFunc
someFunc arg1, arg2
x = someFunc
y = someFunc(arg1, arg2)</ms>

== Function References ==

Sometimes you want to get a function reference ''without'' actually invoking the function. This can be done in two ways:

# Use the <c>@</c> operator before the function identifier. This (often read "address of") operator blocks the usual function invocation. Example: <c>f = @someFunc</c>
# Fetch the value out of a map using square-brackets indexing rather than dot syntax. Example: <c>f = locals["someFunc"]</c>

A function reference has the type [[FuncRef|funcRef]].

[[Category:Language]]
[[Category:Keywords]]

FuncRef

2023-04-24T09:32:12Z

SebNozzi: Link to function references

<c>funcRef</c> returns a map that represents a [[Function#Function_References|function reference]] in
MiniScript's core type system. This can be used with `[[Isa | isa]]`
to check whether a variable refers to a function (but be
sure to use @ to avoid invoking the function and testing
the result).

See also: [[number type|number]]; [[string type|string]]; [[list type|list]]; [[map type|map]]

=== Usage Notes ===
<c>funcRef</c> Be
sure to use @ to avoid invoking the function and testing
the result.

Reboot

2022-08-22T20:10:04Z

SebNozzi: Fixed mention of release version

The <c>reboot</c> command in Mini Micro restarts the virtual machine. This includes resetting all displays, global variables, and program state; then re-running /sys/startup, followed by any /usr/startup script found.

The result should be exactly equivalent to quitting and re-launching Mini Micro, except that the window size/position is unchanged.

== History ==

<c>reboot</c> was added in Mini Micro 1.1 (though it was mistakenly omitted from the release notes).

Command-line arguments

2022-02-21T16:11:40Z

SebNozzi: Added Mac way to pass arguments - restructured notes

[[Mini Micro]] can be launched from the command line with certain command-line arguments to alter its default behavior.

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Argument !! Value !! Effect !! Example
|-
| <c>-screen-fullscreen</c> || 0 or 1 || start in full-screen mode || <c>-screen-fullscreen 1</c>
|-
| <c>-scale</c> || floating-point value || set screen scale to this factor || <c>-scale 2</c>
|-
| <c>-usr</c> || file path || mount given file or directory as /usr || <c>-usr /Users/alice/myFiles</c>
|-
| <c>-usr2</c> || file path || mount given file or directory as /usr2 || <c>-usr2 /Users/bob/game.minidisk</c>
|}

== Usage Notes ==

On Mac, to use these arguments you have two possibilities:

# Running the bundle executable directly
# Opening the app bundle with <c>open</c>

==== 1. Running the bundle executable directly ====

You <c>cd</c> inside the app bundle until you reach the executable, e.g. <c>cd MiniMicro.app/Contents/MacOS</c>.

Then you can launch the app like any Unix executable, e.g. <c>./Mini\ Micro -scale 3</c>.

==== 2. Opening the app bundle with <c>open</c> ====

You <c>cd</c> into the folder where the MiniMicro bundle is installed, e.g. <c>cd /Applications</c>.

Then you can launch the app with the <c>open</c> command, passing arguments with `args`, e.g. <c>open -a MiniMicro.app --args -scale 3</c>.

Sort

2022-02-01T10:42:01Z

SebNozzi: Added example for sorting by property

<c>sort</c> sorts a list in place. With null or no argument, this sorts the list elements by their own values.

See also: [[shuffle]]

=== Arguments ===

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Parameter Name !! Default Value !! Meaning
|-
| ''self'' || list || list to sort
|-
| ''byKey'' || optional || if given, sort each element by indexing with this key.
|}

=== Usage Notes ===
With the byKey argument, each
element is indexed by that argument, and the elements are sorted
by the result. (This only works if the list elements are maps, or
they are lists and byKey is an integer index.)

== Example ==

Sorting numeric list in-place:

<ms>
a = [5,3,4,1,2]
a.sort // results in a == [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]</ms>

Sorting objects / maps by some property:

<ms>
// Let's consider people
Person = {}

newPerson = function(name, age)
p = new Person
p.name = name
p.age = age
return p
end function

john = newPerson("John", 30)
ursula = newPerson("Ursula", 20)
anna = newPerson("Anna", 40)

people = [john, ursula, anna]

people.sort("age") // results in people == [ursula, john, anna]
people.sort("name") // results in people == [anna, john, ursula]
</ms>

|-
| replace(''substring'', ''otherString'', ''maxCount'') || Returns a new list replacing occurrences of ''substring'' with ''otherString'' at most ''maxCount'', if specified. If ''maxCount'' is omitted it replaces '''all''' occurrences.
|-
| split(''separator'') || Splits the string by a ''separator'' substring, returning a list of the split parts
|-
| lower || Returns a new string with all letter converted to ''lowercase''
|-
| upper || Returns a new string with all letter converted to ''uppercase''
|-
| code || Returns the numeric code of the first character of the string
|-
| val || Returns the numeric value represented by the string; returns <c>0</c> if the conversion is not possible
|-
