Bonjour,
I am new in ConTeXt. I love its features. I need some (or a lot of) help.
I tried to get a macro which compute some values for a math function. With help
from the wiki ConTeXt Garden and some time I could do that
- write my function userdata.f
- write another function to put the values in a table : userdata.tabf
- put both of them in a file "/Users/rolandt/context/mesfonctionsluatex.lua"
- In a file.tex, I use that macro :
\def\tabf#1#2%
{\startluacode
dofile("/Users/rolandt/context/mesfonctionsluatex.lua")
userdata.tabf(#1,#2)
\stopluacode}
Here are the functions:
-- fonction cube
-- on utilise l'espace de nom userdata
userdata=userdata or {}
function userdata.f(x)
context(x*x*x)
end
-- fonction tabf
-- which makes a table , compute 6 values, b=first x, c = step
userdata=userdata or {}
function userdata.tabf(b,c)
context.starttable{"*{7}{|l}|"}
local b=b
local c=c
context("\\HL")
context("\\VL x ") for i=1,6 do context("\\NC" .. b+(i-1)*c) end
context("\\VL".."\\AR")
context("\\HL")
context("\\VL f(x) ") for i=1,6 do context("\\NC")
context(userdata.f(b+(i-1)*c)) end
context("\\VL".."\\LR")
context("\\HL")
context.stoptable()
end
I am sure it could be much better but it works !
Evidently I need a third argument to be able to choose how many values compute.
I failed completely (I don't understand how arguments are passed).
I tried things like : context.starttable{"*{%s}{|l}|",a} but ... fatal error :)
I would appreciate some help or what to read to improve understanding that kind
of things.
Best regards,
Roland
