I am trying to make a conversation system for a project. I decided to learn to use 4S08 for this and the tables system is slightly unusual. I am adapting this code:[code]Instead of asking someone about something:
let the source be the conversation of the noun;
if topic understood is a topic listed in source
begin;
if there is a turn stamp entry
begin;
say “[The noun] has already told you that [summary entry].”;
otherwise;
change turn stamp entry to the turn count;
say “[reply entry][paragraph break]”;
end if;
otherwise;
say “[The noun] stares at you blankly.”;
end if.
Table of Tina’s Chatter
topic reply summary turn stamp
“aasvogel” “‘Oh, it’s a vulture.’” “that an aasvogel is a vulture” a number
“acaudate” “She shrugs, mid-pour. ‘Means something doesn’t have a tail.’” “that acaudate means ‘tailless’” –
“absorptiometer” “‘It’s a thing that measures the solubility of gases in a liquid,’ she explains gently, as to a child.” “that an absorptiometer measures solubility of gasses in a liquid” –
[/code]
but this does not allow for “the”. and the later “the/–” doesn’t work either. help?
