在改章节中,我们主要介绍程序function的内容,自我感到有个不错的建议和大家分享下
本篇文章作为Lua基础部分的一个小结,演示两个小程序,来表现Lua的不同特性。第一个例子说明Lua如何作为一门数据描述性语言应用。第2个例子,是一个马尔可夫链算法的实现。
ps:个人认为书中的这一章有点稀里糊涂,感到两个例子也没有起到什么总结作用,反而感到讲得有点云里雾里的。
在Lua的网站上保留了一个数据库,存储了世界上应用Lua的项目的一些示例代码。我们用一个结构体来表示数据库中的每个条目,如下所示:
entry{ title = "Tecgraf", org = "Computer Graphics Technology Group, PUC-Rio", url = "http://www.tecgraf.puc-rio.br/", contact = "Waldemar Celes", description = [[ Tecgraf is the result of a partnership between PUC-Rio, the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro, and <a HREF="http://www.petrobras.com.br/">PETROBRAS</a>, the Brazilian Oil Company. Tecgraf is Lua's birthplace, and the language has been used there since 1993. Currently, more than thirty programmers in Tecgraf use Lua regularly; they have written more than two hundred thousand lines of code, distributed among dozens of final products.]] }
含有一系列这样条目的一个数据文件,居然也是一个Lua程序,它以table为参数去对函数entry 进行一系列调用。
我们要写一个程序将这些数据以HTML格式展示出来,这些数据就变成网页 http://www.lua.org/uses.html。 因为有很多项目,终究的页面先列出所有项目的主题,再展示每个项目的细节。如下所示,是程序的一个典型输出:
<html> <head><title>Projects using Lua</title></head> <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> Here are brief descriptions of some projects around the world that use <a href="home.html">Lua</a>. <br> <ul> <li><a href="#1">Tecgraf</a> <li> <other entries> </ul> <h3> <a name="1" href="http://www.tecgraf.puc-rio.br/">Tecgraf</a> <br> <small><em>Computer Graphics Technology Group, PUC-Rio</em></small> </h3> Tecgraf is the result of a partnership between ... distributed among dozens of final products.<p> Contact: Waldemar Celes <a name="2"></a><hr> <other entries> </body></html>
为了读取数据,程序简略定义了entry ,然后用dofile 运行该数据文件。注意,我们必须遍历所有的条目两遍,第一次是为了获取主题列表,第二次来获取项目描述信息。一种方法是将所有的条目手收集到一个array中。但是,还有另一个比拟吸引人的方法:运行这个数据文件两次,每次应用不同的entry 定义。下面我们应用第二种方法。
首先,我们定义一个格式化写入的函数:
function fwrite (fmt, ...) return io.write(string.format(fmt, ...)) end
函数writeheader 简略的写入page header,如下:
function writeheader() io.write([[ <html> <head><title>Projects using Lua</title></head> <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> Here are brief descriptions of some projects around the world that use <a href="home.html">Lua</a>. <br> ]]) end
entry 的第一个定义,将每个项目主题写入到list中为一个条目,参数o 是描述项目的table:
function entry1 (o) count = count + 1 local title = o.title or '(no title)' fwrite('<li><a href="#%d">%s</a>\n', count, title) end
如果o.title 为nil (也就是说这个域没有被提供),函数应用一个固定的"(no title)"。
entry 的第二个定义如下,写入一个项目的所有有效数据。有一点复杂,因为所有的选项都是可选的。(HTML中应用双引号,为了防止跟HTML冲突,我们在程序中应用单引号)。
function entry2 (o) count = count + 1 fwrite('<hr>\n<h3>\n') local href = o.url and string.format(' href="%s"', o.url) or '' local title = o.title or o.org or 'org' fwrite('<a name="%d"%s>%s</a>\n', count, href, title) if o.title and o.org then fwrite('<br>\n<small><em>%s</em></small>', o.org) end fwrite('\n</h3>\n') if o.description then fwrite('%s<p>\n', string.gsub(o.description, '\n\n+', '<p>\n')) end if o.email then fwrite('Contact: <a href="mailto:%s">%s</a>\n', o.email, o.contact or o.email) elseif o.contact then fwrite('Contact: %s\n', o.contact) end end
最后一个函数writetail ,写page tail。
function writetail () fwrite('</body></html>\n') end
主程序如下所示。程序打开页面,加载数据文件,用entry 的第一个定义(entry1)来创立主题列表,然后重置计数器,再用entry 的第二个定义(entry2)来运行数据文件,最后关闭页面。
local inputfile = 'db.lua' writeheader() count = 0 f = loadfile(inputfile) -- loads data file entry = entry1 -- defines 'entry' fwrite('<ul>\n') f() -- runs data file fwrite('</ul>\n') count = 0 entry = entry2 -- redefines 'entry' f() -- runs data file again writetail()
汇总了一下下面的程序代码如下:
function fwrite (fmt, ...) return io.write(string.format(fmt, ...)) end function writeheader() io.write([[ <html> <head><title>Projects using lua</title></head> <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> Here are brief description of some projects around the world that use <a href="home.html">Lua</a>. <br> ]]) end function entry1 (o) count = count + 1 local title = o.title or '(no title)' fwrite('<li><a href="#%d">%s</a>\n', count, title) end function entry2 (o) count = count + 1 fwrite('<hr>\n<h3>\n') local href = o.url and string.format(' href="%s"', o.url) local title = o.title or o.org or 'org' fwrite('<a name="%d"%s>%s</a>\n', count, href, title) if o.title and o.org then fwrite('<br>\n<small><em>%s</em></small>', o.org) end fwrite('\n</h3>\n') if o.description then fwrite('%s<p>\n', string.gsub(o.description, '\n\n+', '<p>\n')) end if o.email then fwrite('Contact: <a href="mailto:%s">%s</a>\n', o.email, o.contact or o.email) elseif o.contact then fwrite('Contact: %s\n', o.contact) end end function writetail () fwrite('</body></html>\n') end local inputfile = 'db.lua' writeheader() count = 0 f = loadfile(inputfile) -- loads data file entry = entry1 -- defines 'entry' fwrite('<ul>\n') f() -- runs data file fwrite('</ul>\n') count = 0 entry = entry2 -- redefines 'entry' f() -- runs data file again writetail()
db.lua文件的内容如下:
entry{ title = "Tecgraf", org = "Computer Graphics Technology Group, PUC-Rio", url = "http://www.tecgraf.puc-rio.br/", contact = "Waldemar Celes", description = [[ TeCGraf is the result of a partnership between PUC-Rio, the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro, and <A HREF="http://www.petrobras.com.br/">PETROBRAS</A>, the Brazilian Oil Company. TeCGraf is Lua's birthplace, and the language has been used there since 1993. Currently, more than thirty programmers in TeCGraf use Lua regularly; they have written more than two hundred thousand lines of code, distributed among dozens of final products.]] } entry{ title = "Tecgraf_02", org = "Computer Graphics Technology Group, PUC-Rio, the 2nd entry", url = "http://www.tecgraf.puc-rio.br/, the 2nd entry", contact = "Waldemar Celes 02", description = [[ This is the 2nd entry, TeCGraf is the result of a partnership between PUC-Rio, the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro, and <A HREF="http://www.petrobras.com.br/">PETROBRAS</A>, the Brazilian Oil Company. TeCGraf is Lua's birthplace, and the language has been used there since 1993. Currently, more than thirty programmers in TeCGraf use Lua regularly; they have written more than two hundred thousand lines of code, distributed among dozens of final products.]] }
运行结果如下:
第2个例子是马尔可夫链算法的实现.这个程序基于文本中的前n个词来生成随机的文本,这里我们假设n为2。
程序的第一部分,读取基本文本,并创立一个table,每两个单词为一个前缀,将基本文本中在该前缀之后的单词(可能有多个)存入table中。创立完该table后,程序用这个table去随机生成文本,每个前缀后的单词出现的概率跟在基本文本中大致雷同。这样,我们就得到一个相当随机的文本。
我们会把两个单词用一个空格“ ”链接起来,编码为前缀:
function prefix (w1, w2) return w1 .. " " .. w2 end
我们应用字符串 NOWORD("\n")来初始化前缀单词,并且标记文本的开头。例如:
the more we try the more we do
生成的table将会是:
{ ["\n \n"] = {"the"}, ["\n the"] = {"more"}, ["the more"] = {"we", "we"}, -- 有两处"the more we" ["more we"] = {"try", "do"}, -- 两处"more we try", "more we do" ["we try"] = {"the"}, ["try the"] = {"more"}, ["we do"] = {"\n"}, }
程序将它的table保存到变量statetab中。我们用下面的函数在这个table的前缀list中插入一个新的单词
function insert (index, value) local list = statetab[index] if list == nil then statetab[index] = {value} else list[#list + 1] = value end end
它首先检查这个前缀是否有list了;如果么有,那么用这个新值创立一个新的list;否则,就将这个新值插入到已存在的list的末端。
要创立statetab这个table,我们保存两个变量,w1 和 w2,保存最后读取的两个单词。每读取一个新的单词,我们就将它添加到与w1-w2关联的list中,然后update一下w1和w2。
创立完这个table后,程序开始用MAXGEN个单词来生成文本。首先,它从新初始化w1和w2。然后,对每个前缀,它从合法的下一个单词的list中随机选取一个,打印这个单词,然后update下w1和w2. 下面是完整版的程序。
-- Auxiliary definitions for the Markov program function allwords () local line = io.read() -- current line local pos = 1 -- current position in the line return function () -- iterator function while line do -- repeat while there are lines local s, e = string.find(line, "%w+", pos) if s then -- found a word? pos = e + 1 -- update next position return string.sub(line, s, e) -- return the word else line = io.read() -- word not found; try next line pos = 1 -- restart from first position end end return nil -- no more lines: end of traversal end end function prefix (w1, w2) return w1 .. " " .. w2 end local statetab = {} function insert (index, value) local list = statetab[index] if list == nil then statetab[index] = {value} else list[#list + 1] = value end end -- The Markov program local N = 2 local MAXGEN = 10000 local NOWORD = "\n" -- build table local w1, w2 = NOWORD, NOWORD for w in allwords() do insert(prefix(w1, w2), w) w1 = w2; w2 = w; end insert(prefix(w1, w2), NOWORD) -- generate text w1 = NOWORD; w2 = NOWORD -- reinitialize for i=1, MAXGEN do local list = statetab[prefix(w1, w2)] -- choose a random item from list local r = math.random(#list) local nextword = list[r] if nextword == NOWORD then return end io.write(nextword, " ") w1 = w2; w2 = nextword end
运行结果如下:
