Interval on array help

[boby psaico]

Hello guys
Well, how can i do a interval on array?

Example:
Current script:

local results = {
[1] = {
      [1] = 2000,
      [2] = 2000,
      [3] = 2000,
      [4] = 2000,
      [5] = 2001,
    },
}

SetPlayerStorageValue(cid, results[1][math.random(5)], 1)

I want something like this:

local results = {

[1] = {
      [{1, 4}] = 2000, --- INTERVAL
      [5] = 2001,
    },
}

SetPlayerStorageValue(cid, results[1][math.random(5)], 1)

It's possible? Thanks

Not tested but should work.

local results = {
    [1] = {
        [{1, 4}] = 2000, --- INTERVAL
        [5] = 2001,
    }
}

function getResultFromTable(table, value)
    for ind, v in pairs(table) do
        if type(ind) == "table" then
            if value >= ind[1] and value <= ind[2] then
                return v
            end
        else
            if value == ind then
                return v
            end
        end
    end

    return nil
end

-- use it like this:
-- local result = getResultFromTable(results[1], 4)
-- local result = getResultFromTable(results[1], 5)

I dont understand how to implement it to my script, it has several arrays

function onDeath(cid, corpse, deathList)
local results = {
    [1] = {
      [1] = 2000,
      [2] = 2000,
      [3] = 2000,
      [4] = 2000,
      [5] = 2001
},
    [2] = {
      [1] = 2000,
      [2] = 2000,
      [3] = 2000,
      [4] = 2000,
      [5] = 2002
},
      
    [3] = {
      [1] = 2000,
      [2] = 2000,
      [3] = 2000,
      [4] = 2000,
      [5] = 2003
}
}

SetPlayerStorageValue(cid, results[1][math.random(5)], 1)
SetPlayerStorageValue(cid, results[2][math.random(5)], 1)
SetPlayerStorageValue(cid, results[3][math.random(5)], 1)
    return true
end

 

[Summ]

getResultFromTable(results[1], math.random(5))
getResultFromTable(results[2], math.random(5))
getResultFromTable(results[3], math.random(5))

worked perfectly
Thank so much

one more question, I need to put the maximum number of each array or I can express with var?
Example:

function onDeath(cid, corpse, deathList)
local results = {
[1] = {
[{1, 4}] = 2000,
[5] = 2001
},

[2] = {
[{1, 4}] = 2000,
[5] = 2002
},

[3] = {
[{1, 4}] = 2000,
[5] = 2003
}
}

SetPlayerStorageValue(cid, getResultFromTable(results[1], math.random(5)), 1) <-- red number
SetPlayerStorageValue(cid, getResultFromTable(results[2], math.random(5)), 1) <-- red number
SetPlayerStorageValue(cid, getResultFromTable(results[3], math.random(5)), 1) <-- red number
return true
end

I'd like something to find a max number automatically, like #results[1], but with getResultFromTable isnt possible :s

up

I don't think there is a efficient way to do that. You can add a field called "max" to the table, which holds the maximum index and then use something like:
SetPlayerStorageValue(cid, getResultFromTable(results[3], math.random(results[3].max)), 1)

this worked but is almost the same thing, but better
thanks again
