Stickiness:

Omni	Here's an example. Create3DScene(int 3Dpolygon) { Log(str(3Dpolygon)); } Verge assumes the "3" is a multiplier. Thus... Create3DScene(2) Would log '6'. Posted on 2004-07-16 16:22:40
Zip	Added to docs, remember you can do this yourself Omni if you find anything else like this you think might help people out. Every comment welcome. Zip Posted on 2004-07-16 17:47:10
vecna	The error is that this compiles. You (should not be able to) have any named identifier that starts with a number. If a token starts with a number, its assumed to be a number. Try it with C, you can't create a variable or function name that starts with a number. Posted on 2004-07-16 18:18:25
Zip	Indeed. I tend to avoid numbers in variable names completely, but calling a variable 3DPolygon, most languages would certainly not be happy. I didn't know that the * was not needed in verge though, so does a(b+c) work? Zip Posted on 2004-07-16 18:25:47
