Revision as of 17:48, 2 May 2023
The /hdec command decreases the value of a hashtable item by [num]. If the optional number value is not specified, the default increment value is 1. It uses the same syntax as /hadd except -b's &binvar is the [num] parameter not the destination.
Synopsis
/hdec [-m[N]szuN] ‹table› <item> [num] /hdec -b[m[N]szuN] ‹table> <item> <&bvar>
Switches
- -m[N] - Creates the hash table if it does not exist, optionally setting the number of buckets to N. (Valid N 1-10000)
- -s - Displays the assignment information
- -b - uses the .text contents of a &binvar as the [num] parameter.
- -z - After setting the data's value, decreases the value by 1 each second; unsets to prevent the data value being zero or negative
- -uN - Removes the hashtable item/value after N seconds
Note: If hashtable item has a non-zero $hget(table,item).unset property due to using -uN or -z switches when created or modified by /hinc /hdec or /hadd, then /hsave will not save that item to disk without the /hsave -u switch. /hdec preserves any existing unset delay when -z and -uN switches are not used.
Parameters
- <table> - The handle name of the table containing the 'item'
- <item> - The item name associated with the data value
- [num] - The optional value by which to decrease the data value. If not present, decreases by 1.0
- <&bvar> - The binary variable containing the value by which to decrease the 'item'
Example
Note: For more examples see the /hinc page. /hdec is the same as /hinc except for decrementing by [num] instead of incrementing.
alias countdown { ;adds the item down with a value of 10 to the table count hadd -m count down 10 echo -a $hget(count,down) $+ ! :repeat ;checks if the value of down returns true if ($hget(count,down) > 1) { ;decreases down by 1 hdec count down ;echos the current count echo -a $hget(count,down) $+ ! ;repeats goto repeat } ;if the previous if statement returns false it carries on with this. else echo -a 0, Hurray! hfree -s count }
