Module:Pn

Kufuma Wikipedia

The module returns one value from its list of unnamed parameters.

The named parameter |idx= is the index of the parameter that is to be returned.

Negative indices count backward from the end of the list.

A wrapper template may be used to simplify usage.

Examples

[kulemba source]
  • {{#invoke:Pn |getVal | idx=1}}
  • {{#invoke:Pn |getVal | idx= | a | b | c | d | e | f }} → a
  • {{#invoke:Pn |getVal | idx=0 | a | b | c | d | e | f }}
  • {{#invoke:Pn |getVal | idx=1 | a | b | c | d | e | f }} → a
  • {{#invoke:Pn |getVal | idx=2 | a | b | c | d | e | f }} → b
  • {{#invoke:Pn |getVal | idx=-1 | a | b | c | d | e | f }} → f
  • {{#invoke:Pn |getVal | idx=99 | a | b | c | d | e | f }}

Using a wrapper template, {{P-1}}:

  • {{p-1 | a | b | c | d | e | f }} → f
  • {{wdib|ps=1|P8011|qid=Q84055514}}
  • {{wdib|ps=1|P8011|qid=Q84055514|list=p-1}}
