The /hdec command decreases the value of a key by [num]. If the value is not specified, the default value is 1.0.

Synopsis

/hdec [-mszu#] <key> [num] /hdec -b[cmszu#]
<key> <&bvar>

Switches

  • -m - Creates the hash table if it does not exist
  • -s - Displays the assignment information
  • -b - Treats the value as a binary variable
  • -c - Truncates the &bvar at the first null value
  • -z - Decreases the value by 1.0 every second; stops at zero
  • -u# - Removes the key/value after # seconds

Parameters

- The handle name of the table to operate on
  • <key> - The key associated with the value
  • [num] - The value to decrease the value by
  • <&bvar> - The binary variable value to decrease the value by

    • Example

    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
}
