I have arrays with some set rules for the print results; if table has all elements to be 1, then it should check the last element of the next table- if that value is one, then it will be removed and added to that table.Same applies to the element 0. Here's what I have:
function table_merge(t1, t2)
for _, v in ipairs(t2) do
table.insert(t1, v)
end
end
function getMaster(tbl, rules)
local result = false
for _, rule in ipairs(rules) do
for i, v in ipairs(tbl) do
result = v
if tostring(v) ~= tostring(rule) then
result = false
break
end
end
if result then break end
end
return result
end
function start(data, rules)
local master_key, master_val
local _temp, continue = {}, true
for i, tbl in ipairs(data) do
local master = getMaster(tbl, rules)
if master and master ~= master_val then
continue = true
end
if continue then
if master then
master_key = i
master_val = master
elseif tbl[#tbl] == master_val then
tbl[#tbl] = nil
table.insert(_temp[master_key], master_val)
elseif master_key then
continue = false
end
end
_temp[i] = tbl
end
local result = {}
for i, tbl in ipairs(_temp) do
table_merge(result, tbl)
end
return table.concat(result, "")
end
-- RULES
local rules = { 0, 1}
local data = {
{ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 },
{ 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0 },
{ 0, 0, 0, 8, 1, 0 },
{ 1, 1, 1, 1, 8, 8 },
{ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 },
}
start(data, rules)
OUTPUT:
000000001111100081111188000000
The expected results should be this:
000000001111110008111188000000
How do I achieve the required results? Thanks |
