getGenderPronoun(cid, uppercase) : He, he, She, she

[hodleo]

It's a function I recently made for my reputation system. Well if you read the thread's title you know what does it do. Might be useful for other scripts, I guess...

If you want it @ lowercase, then must be: getGenderPronoun(cid)
-> he, she
If you want it @ uppercase, then must be: getGenderPronoun(cid, true)
-> He, She

function getGenderPronoun(cid, uppercase)
    return (getPlayerSex(cid) == 0 and (uppercase and 'Sh' or 'sh') or (uppercase and 'H' or 'h')) .. 'e'
end

ow another variant

function getGenderPronoun(cid, uppercase)
	return string.gsub(getPlayerSex(cid) == 0 and 'she' or 'he', '^%l', uppercase and string.upper or string.lower)
end

Cykotitan, How do I understand the operation of each variable?
Example: return string.gsub
Wath is this? :S

lua-users wiki: String Library Tutorial

string.gsub(s, pattern, replace [, n])

s:gsub(pattern, replace [,n])

This is a very powerful function and can be used in multiple ways. Used simply it can replace all instances of the pattern provided with the replacement. A pair of values is returned, the modified string and the number of substitutions made. The optional fourth argument n can be used to limit the number of substitutions made:

> = string.gsub("Hello banana", "banana", "Lua user")
Hello Lua user 1
> = string.gsub("banana", "a", "A", 2) -- limit substitutions made to 2
bAnAna 2
