Bug From ComputerCraft 1.3 this API suffers from the problem of potentially spawning Java threads that live forever therefore, use of coroutines should be minimized. This is fixed in ComputerCraft 1.32+, though.
This is for the Coroutine API. For the Coroutine Object, visit Coroutine.
Coroutine is a default Lua 5.1 API defined here. Please list any non-working functions here.
Methods
| Method name | Description |
|---|---|
| coroutine.create(function) | Creates and Returns a new coroutine. |
| coroutine.resume(coroutine, [var1], [var2], ...) | Starts or Resumes an already-made coroutine. |
| coroutine.running() | Returns the coroutine running (nil if it's the main coroutine). |
| coroutine.status(coroutine) | Returns the status of the given coroutine. |
| coroutine.wrap(function) | Creates and Returns a new coroutine in the form of a function. |
| coroutine.yield([var1], [var2], ...) | Pauses the coroutine. Variables passed will be extra variables next time the coroutine starts. |
