gollark: Oh, and in potatOS Lua you can *also* do: `(1 / " ") * string`
gollark: So you can do roughly the same things fairly easily.
gollark: Lua, sadly, doesn't have string split built in, but does have a ton of weird regexy string manipulation functions builtin.
gollark: In PotatOS Lua you can actually do `string / " "`.
gollark: C: haha no
