Glowscript 1.1 errors related to break and integer division

[Adam Hausknecht]

Hi,

I am attempting to convert a VPython program (attached) that uses WxWidgits to a GlowScript 1.1 VPython program. However, I repeatedly get errors of the following type:

"Unterminated regular expression near line 502: h = h // 3"

I also get errors with statements of the type:

   if h == 0: break 

inside a while loop,

Does GlowScript 1.1 VPython support Python classes or should

I use JavaScript objects?

Regards,

Thanks for pointing out the problem with "//", which is being misinterpreted by the RapydScript compiler as being a malformed regular expression pattern. I've reported this to the RapydScript group at

https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups&hl=en#!forum/rapydscript

After replacing all of your x // y with int(x / y), and replacing one instance of kBubble with kBubbleSort, I don't get any errors (but I don't know whether the program works). I attach the modified program.

GlowScript does indeed support Python classes. See http://rapydscript.pyjeon.com/ or http://www.rapydscript.com for details.

Thanks for your help! I hope to complete the conversion soon!

I should mention that in JavaScript, to which RapydScript compiles, does not have integer variables! For example, you can use a floating point variable to index into an array, as long as that floating point variable's value is an integer. (I'm ignoring here the special JavaScript typed arrays which include byte arrays, integer arrays, etc.)
