gollark: Wow, BEE the memq function?
gollark: We are investigating MANY things.
gollark: This is quite complex, but here you go.
gollark: ```lualocal mathfloor, mathpow = math.floor, math.powstrats.actually_vaguely_forgiving_grudger = function(prev, opponent, memory) -- gollarious² if #opponent == 0 then return true end if memory.defections == nil then memory.defections = 0 end if opponent[#opponent] == false then memory.defections = memory.defections + 1 return false end local lookback = mathfloor(mathpow(2, memory.defections)) for i = #opponent, (#opponent - lookback), -1 do if opponent[i] == false and prev[i] == true then return false end end return trueend```
