How or Can I pass a function with argument as a parameter to a function in lua?

I am not running straight lua but the CC-Tweaks ComputerCraft version. This is an example of what I am trying to accomplish. It does not work as is.

*edited. I got a function to pass, but not one with arguments of its own.

function helloworld(arg)

    print(arg)

end

function frepeat(command)

    for i=1,10 do

        command()

    end

end

frepeat(helloworld("hello"))
Solution

  • Try this code:

    function helloworld(arg)
    print(arg)
end

function frepeat(command,arg)
    for i=1,10 do
        command(arg)
    end
end

frepeat(helloworld,"hello")

    If you need multiple arguments, use ... instead of arg.
