print(print) > function: ********
print(type(print)) > function
print(getmetatable(print)) > nil
coroutine.create(print) > bad argument #1 to 'create' (Lua function expected)
What is this sorcery? |

| coroutine.wrap(wait) errors as well. I'm going to assume that you can only reference functions you define inside of the script. |

That would be because the wait function is Implemented in C++ |

| It obviously isn't a Lua function because it has to do communication with the application to present debug data in the Output. |

"That would be because the wait function is Implemented in C++"
Ugh, why must everyone everyone capitalize the first letter of random words ("Implemented", in this case)? I'm seeing this everywhere on the Internet and I just don't understand why people do it. It's like putting two spaces after periods. It's obviously incorrect, but people still do it for some reason, or perhaps for no reason at all.
I mean, I really just don't get it. Everyone should have learnt in school that capitalization is for the first word in a sentence and for proper nouns (and also for some other cases). Not for capitalizing random words because you feel like it! |

| They are probably children, yet to master the rules of capitalization in English. |

| Maybe they can't spell it so they google'd it and they copy-pasted? :3 |

@Color
Why are you focused on sentence structures instead of the actual post itself? |

One of my English professors insisted on our essays having two periods after spaces. Also, as a general rule, try not to correct grammar, mechanics, usage, or spelling, as you are likely to make at least one mistake in your own post. |

What sort of English teacher do you have? He was actually telling you to put two spaces after periods? He could've at least have informed himself before teaching such things to his students... |

Most likely because my tablet, split up I and mplemented due to my own typing error. So when I spaced them back together.....it ended up like that.
Why must everyone be so stuck up about idiotic rules?
Yes, I'm mocking you. |

Because the alternative is that we argue about serious issues, which would result in despair. |

I'm not stuck up about the fact that you did it. I'm stuck up about the fact that everyone in the Internet does it for some reason.
I can perfectly understand that it's because of your tablet and that you didn't bother to correct it; editing text on tablets is indeed pretty hard, and it is a perfectly forgivable error. But not when the Internet is filled with it, and I'm pretty sure all those errors out there aren't because of tablets splitting words or whatever. |

I'm not asking for you to forgive my mistake due to it being a more-so unwilling error. I'm just wondering why it bothers you sooooo much? (Oh no, I put too many o's!)
It's not that hard to simply ignore it and prove maturity by it, that is, I can understand if you don't mind showing how irritated you can get and that maturity is not something to be cared for.
At the same time, maturity is an arbitrary concept in the eyes of the beholder.... |

This is quite odd. Having two periods after a space? I'm going to assume that was a mix-up :3
I wouldn't have done it. I would have rather failed her marking on punctuation than done something like that. |

Stop that. Ignoring things that bother one is an quick way to induce chronic depressions. |
