possible bug *with versions*

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next] [Date Index] [Thread Index]


sorry, I realized right after I sent the message I forgot to include what version I was working with. I've confirmed this happening with 5.1.4 and 5.2.0. Hello everyone, I'm pretty new to programming and even newer to Lua, so please humor me. I feel I've found a bug but it's most likely just me being a noob.
function f(set)
	local newset,cloneset={},set
	for x=1,#cloneset do
		newset[x]=cloneset[#cloneset]
		table.remove(cloneset)
	end
	return newset
end
function
g(set)
	set=f(set)
end
a={1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}
g(a)
print(#a)
This is the simplest form I can put the bug in. I feel like it should output 9 but instead it outputs 0. If someone could tell my why this is happening I would be much obliged.
info:
- #f(a)=9
- every time table.remove(cloneset) is executed it also executes the equivalent of table.remove(a)
