Function turtle.suck
Moves one or more items from either the ground above the turtle, or, from an inventory-enabled block (such as a chest) above the turtle. If an item is in the square directly above of the turtle, it picks up one of those items. If a chest is in the square directly above the turtle, it picks up the items from the first non-empty chest slot, moving from top left to bottom right. The items are moved into the currently selected turtle slot if there is room. If the currently selected turtle slot is filled up before all of the items are picked up, the remaining picked up items are put in the next available turtle slot. If the currently selected turtle slot is 16 and the next slot is required, it will loop around and try turtle slot 1, and so on. As of Minecraft 1.5/ComputerCraft 1.51, turtle.suckUp can be used to pick items of the output slot of a furnace. As of ComputerCraft 1.6, if an amount is specified, the turtle will attempt to pick up at most the specified number of items. Earlier builds always attempt to pick up a full slot.
