calling ´sqrt´ Error

[norbert]

Hello,

 

when i call the command sqrt in lua script this error message is displayed:

 

calling ´sqrt´ on bad self (number expected, got table)

 

local test

 

test = math:sqrt(2)

System:Print(test)

I think the correct syntax is math.sqrt(). When you use the ':' character you pass the table itself into the function as the first parameter, which can then be accessed with the self keyboard.

Hello Admin,

 

the commands math.sqrt() or Math.sqrt() are unknown to the editor. and the text not glow blue.

The Scintilla Lua syntax highlighter does not highlight words separated by a period. Kind of odd, but that's how they made it.
