wait.dots

Purpose

This librairy keeps a dot inside the lib for a certain amount of time. Since every dot moves at the same time, it can be usefull to have one dot that waits untill an other completes an operation.

Usage

 _
L+R
 B

Parameters

• L: Entry for the waiting dot
• R: output the L dot after wait
• B: Number of ticks to wait.

Example

%!wait.dots W

     .--W--$'The dot has waited 121 ticks'--&
.-#100--/

Notes

• The waiting time is changed to the following number of the form 22 + 33k (with k positive integer), thus A dot will always wait at least B ticks, but it can be not exactly B
• This doesn’t work at all in async mode
