68.5.235.48: Under the knife info (will add shortly)

heeheehee, I know that '''A Fledgling Pirate Is You!''' will automatically use the three items, but is it an auto-stop? Those are different things. I admit that I only use a single adventure when I have the items so I never gave it a chance to auto-stop, but I always thought it would adventure as many times as I asked it to do so. (No reason it should since any player knows not to do that...) Has it actually auto-stopped for you? --[[User:Bale|Bale]] 00:51, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

I almost posted the same thing earlier, but then I had to take a call. If you're sure, leave it, but like Bale I've never tried to auto-adv. at that point. If not, we should figure out a good place to put such auto-use info. --[[User:StDoodle|StDoodle (#1059825)]] 01:08, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, uh, looking at the code, turns out that it isn't. My bad. On the other hand, currently missing are: '''History is Fun!''', '''The Manor in Which You're Accustomed''', '''Drawn Onward''', '''Mr. Alarm''', '''We'll All Be Flat''', '''This Adventure Bites''', '''Granny, Does Your Dogfish Bite?''', '''I Just Wanna Fly''' and '''Me Just Want Fly''', and '''Let's Make a Deal!'''. I'm not sure if the code's saying that semirares and BM adventures cause an auto-stop, as the section's called "SPECIAL_ENCOUNTERS". --[[User:Heeheehee|Heeheehee]] 02:47, 3 July 2010 (UTC)
:Edit: Apparently, BM adventures lead to an auto-stop, semirares do not. --[[User:Heeheehee|Heeheehee]] 02:49, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

: All Bad Moon adventures are auto-stops? Awesome! I'll add that. I'll add the rest of what you found also. (Though History is Fun! is already included since that's a sub-adventure of Take a look it's in a book.) Thanks a lot! --[[User:Bale|Bale]] 05:04, 3 July 2010 (UTC)
:: Also, Under the Knife is the only one of these that checks for a preference (namely, "choiceAdventure21") to determine whether to autostop or not. Adding that as well. --[[Special:Contributions/68.5.235.48|68.5.235.48]] 23:13, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

68.5.235.48: Consistency!

{{TOCright}}
== if/else ==
if (boolean)

{}

else if (boolean)

{}

else

{}

== switch ==
switch (value)
{
case expression:
statement
statement
...
break;
default:
statement
statement
...
break;
}

== while ==
while (boolean)

{}
== repeat until ==
repeat
{}
until (boolean);
== for ==
for x from a to b by c

is the general case. You don't need to specify whether it's going up or down - although doing so by using upto or downto does allow a runtime check to make sure you didn't screw up.

If you don't specify "c", it defaults to incrementing/decrementing by 1. The first iteration is at a and the last is at b (that is to say, it goes from a to b, inclusive).

== foreach ==
foreach x in map

{}

"map" must be an aggregate - a map or a slice. x takes on each value of the map index in turn. If there is more than one index, x iterates over the first index.

For example:
boolean [int][string] map;
map[15]["test"] = true;
foreach int_index in map
{
print(int_index); //this will print '15' once, since there is only one valid value for this index
foreach string_index in map[int_index] //this iterates over the "slice" of the map where 1 is fixed as the index
{
print(string_index); //This will print "test" once, since there is only one valid value for this index
print(map[int_index][string_index]); //this will print "true"
}
}
So the output is
15
test
true

Note that instead of nesting foreach statements, for a multidimensional map, two iterators can be used inline.
foreach x,y in map
is identical to
foreach x in map
{
foreach y in map[x]
}
See http://kolmafia.sourceforge.net/advanced.html#maps for more details on maps.
== continue/break ==
Like many languages with looping structures, ASH supports the break and continue statements. All looping structures (for, while, repeat until, and foreach) support these statements.

break;
Breaks out of the smallest enclosing loop. In a switch statement, breaks out of the switch statement. Execution resumes at the first statement after the end of the loop/switch statement.

continue;
Continues on to the next iteration of the loop (skipping any statments in this iteration that occur after the continue statement). In a switch statement, continue is allowed iff the switch is inside a loop, and acts as any other continue.
