RGSS scripting dissections and explinations

Well, this kind of ignores all those terms I once explained when you didn't understand why the print command is called like that...

Syntax errors would be the programming equivalent to having a very bad orthography in an essay.

Did you mean...?

module
modulo
modulus

exponent examples: 2**2 is the same as 2 * 2, 4**2 is the same as 4 * 4, where * asterisk is the symbol you need to make Ruby multiply a number or ** asterisks to get its exponent. In recent versions of Ruby, 2.2+, asterisks have other uses as well. Actually even in Ruby 1.8.1 you can use an asterisk to make an array if it's an argument included in a method definition, i.e.

def my_method(name, *arguments)
print name, arguments.class
end

my_method #=> Pop up window shows up telling you the name you passed through and Array as arguments actual class.
