Find full string using partial string lua

问题

I tried to find the whole string in a table without writing the full string.

Example:

maintable = {"SecondString", "FirstString"}
c = "First"

How would I be able to use string c to find the whole name of FirstString without typing the whole string name?

回答1:

You have to search the table:

for k,v in pairs(maintable) do
    if v:match(c) then print(k,v) end
end
