lua pairs与ipairs区别

pairs与ipairs区别

pairs是无序遍历，ipairs是有序遍历
pairs支持key,value格式，ipairs 只支持key为数字

local a={a="a","b","c","d","e"}
for k,v in pairs(a) do
	print(v)
end
print("-----------------------")
for k,v in ipairs(a) do
	print(v)
end

输出

b
c
d
e
a
-----------------------
b
c
d
e

pairs可以遍历value为空的表，ipairs不可能遍历value为空的表，遇nil则退出遍历

local b={nil,"a","b","c"}
for k,v in pairs(b) do
	print(v)
end
print("------------------------")
for k,v in ipairs(b) do
	print(v)
end

local c={"a",nil,"b","c","d"}
for k,v in pairs(c) do
	print(v)
end
print("-----------------------")
for k,v in ipairs(c) do
	print(v)
end

输出

a
b
c
------------------------

a
b
c
d
-----------------------
a
