    4 replies, posted
Hi I'm trying to use [CODE] local TeamPropP = { } TeamPropP = split( "Name-Bob-Joe-John-Sam-Steve-Ross", "-") [/CODE] which is throwing the error [CODE]attempt to call global 'split' <a nil value>[/CODE] I though it could be used according to [URL="http://lua-users.org/wiki/SplitJoin"]http://lua-users.org/wiki/SplitJoin[/URL] I am used to python's spit('-') function. Could you help me define it using the method to split strings in lua?
Use string.Explode("-", "Name-Bob-Joe-John")
[code] local str = "Hello there kind child" local tbl = string.Explode( " ", str ) PrintTable( tbl ) [/code] [url=http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/Libraries/string/Explode]Reference - string.Explode wiki[/url] [b]Edit:[/b] ninja'd
