The green is wrong.

I'm no lua expert but as i was looking at some code, something seemed a bit... different.
In section 5.11.5, the code in which you save pairs of coordinates as a table of two in a larger table and then draw a polygon
local path = { {100,100}, {200,100}, {200,200}, {100,200} }
...
for i,p in path do
shape:lineTo(p[1], p[2]) -- lineTo used for all points
i tried to test this bit of code t but it didnt work (substituting shape:LineTo to something like function a(x, y) return x+y end and printing the entire expression - print(a(p[1], p[2])). It actually did work when replacing "path" with "pairs(path)".
So, is this a typo/error or the lineTo code really works as intended?
Thanks and hello to everyone, since this is my first post here
If you don't mind me asking - what was your thesis on? and will it get published online?
Well done.

3 chapters to go.
@All Your help here is greatly appreciated.
Latest updates to the book:
1. Nathan made some modifications to Classes section with following changes:
* Changed gideros.class to Core.class
* Updated text to reflect that it's possible to inherit from user classes
* Added subsection 4.2.1 (inheriting from classes with constructor arguments)
* Added subsection 4.2.2 (adding explicit dependencies for inherited classes)
* Added subsection 4.2.3 (accessing overridden functions)
Atilim is having a look at those upon his request in case there are anything missing.
2. Michael Hartlef has provided many updates to Chapter 2, including project pane, output pane, ide pane, installing the player and more.
Currently we are 93 pages long, and there are chapters to be written. If you have some time, your support is greatly appreciated! :-)

Thank you!
I just read through what you have of the book. It really clears up some aspects of GM for me. However, some stuff is obsolete and other parts have some grammatical errors, but I'll go through it and mark it up and LMK where they are. Many of the sections that are left are fairly easy and I would love to do them if I can have permission. Loving it!
Thanks! :-bd
Many thanks!

Back in the days, we had to use Google Docs which I think is not available to edit these anymore, or?

Maybe they could be copied to some kind of Wikimedia site that could be used by everyone to edit and add stuff to?
