Math & Text c

$c — Comment

$c[text] is a comment. The text between the brackets is ignored: functions written inside are not run, and $c[] returns an empty string. It is not a shorter name for $calculate[]: $c[2+3] returns nothing, not 5.

Syntax

$c[text]

Parameters

Parameter Description
text Required, exactly one argument. Never evaluated. A ; inside the text would split it into several arguments, which is refused (“Invalid argument count for $c: 2”), so do not use ; in a comment. $c without brackets is refused as well.

Return Value

An empty string.

Behavior

  • Nothing inside the brackets is executed: $c[$sendMessage[x]] sends nothing.
  • Balanced nested brackets are allowed in the text ($c[note [nested] text] returns an empty string).
  • It can be written anywhere a function can, including inside an argument of another function: $replaceText[hello;l;$c[ignored]L] returns heLlo.

Examples

Documenting a command

$c[This command greets the user]
$sendMessage[Hello!]

Disabling a call temporarily

$c[$sendMessage[This message is never sent]]
$sendMessage[Only this one is sent]

Notes

  • To compute a value, use $calculate[].
