--
-- The Lua script environment includes a Frame object type that is
-- initialized before execution and is bound to the global 'frame' variable.
-- The Frame is the main object with which a script interacts with the qosmic
-- application.  The Frame contains a vector of Genome types corresponding to
-- the each flam3 genome item displayed in the genome selector widget.
--
-- The script environment also contains constant values for the flam3 xform
-- variation types.  These values are globally bound to variables having the
-- same name as the variation name with upper case letters.  The variables can
-- be used to access a particular variation, and they are listed toward the end
-- of this document.
--
-- Be sure to also look at the example.lua and functions.lua scripts in the
-- scripts directory for more examples.
--
-- With each function listed below the optional arguments are given in brackets,
-- and their default values follow an equal sign.
--
-- Please note that the objects in the environment follow the Lua convention
-- of beginning array indexes with 1 instead of 0.  Additionally, if an array
-- index of 0 is passed as an argument, this will be internally translated to an
-- index of 1.

-- Genome Type Interface
--
-- The Genome type provides access to the xforms (triangle), palette, and image

-- to the data in the list.

-- Looping and thread control
--
-- The script environment also contains a stopped() function so that scripts
-- can check if they have been requested to stop executing by the controlling
-- application.  This is useful for scripts that may want to use an infinite
-- loop which don't call a qosmic function.

while not stopped() do
    -- ... do something ...
end

-- You can "restart" a stopped script, or reset the stopped() function by
-- passing it a boolean.

if stopped() then
    stopped(false)  -- returns false
end


-- There is also an irand() function that returns a random value between zero
-- and one.  This is the same random number generator that is used by libflam3.

while true do
    print('irand() = ' .. irand())
end
