Do \luaexpr{1/3.8} and \ctxcommand{format("@0.3f",1/3.8)} return numbers
or strings? That is, I would like to use these results in a \if or
\ifnum command to exit a \doloop.
they return tokens i.e.
\ifnum\luaexpr{math.round(1/3.8)}>1\relax
should work ok; it all depends on what you do, but you could also set a
counter ans use that:
\ctxlua{tex.count.scratchcounter=math.round(1/3.8)}
\ifnum\scratchcounter>0
