fb_objects() - mkraska/meclib GitHub Wiki

obj: fb_objects(objects)

• objects the content of the objects input (the JSON text the meclib graphic writes)

Source

Returns the object list as a Maxima list, the same as STACK's stackjson_parse(objects), but much faster. stackjson_parse() needs time that grows with the square of the length of the text: about 1.2 s for a sketch of 25 objects, and that in every PRT that reads the sketch. fb_objects() reads the text in one pass (0.02 s for the same sketch).

Use it in place of stackjson_parse(objects) in the feedback variables:

obj: fb_objects(objects);

Strings, numbers, true, false, null and nested lists are read like stackjson_parse() does; a text with JSON objects ({...}), which meclib does not write, is passed on to stackjson_parse().
