This is not efficient. The code I shared here is more efficient because strings are immutable in Lua.
What that means is that every time you’re concatenating your return string you’re creating a new string in memory and garbage collecting the old one.
If one tries to encode a 10 character string with your method, they’d end up wastefully using and GCing 100 bytes of memory.
A better way to gradually build a string is to add to an array and then use table.concat when you’re ready to turn it into a string.

but its more efficient than what this module is doing. but i never knew that, thanks for telling me.
Can you stop hating on this module? I have already confirmed many times that it is NOT for encoding data with client <—> server communication.
dude… how am i hating your module??? explain.
Every post you make here is either saying “Oh there are way better options” or “Don’t use this, it is bad”
Hello @commitblue.
Please do not send hate to the devs of RoEncode. Pretty much every post you said this isn’t encryption and then you send negative feedback. Please please stop now. It’s making me and the devs quite sad. This happened to me about a month ago so I know how it feels. You should not be getting hate for trying to help the community.
Here’s some of you posts:
(BTW you edited some so you wouldn’t seem as harsh.)
Couldn’t find a lot because of a lot a lot of edits and deleted post.
If you don’t like something then don’t say anything.
Here’s a good example of a constructive post you could make:
Please stop sending hate,

just because he says it’s not for security doesn’t mean he’s hating at it.
as soon as you put ur stuff on #resources:community-resources you accept the reality of your lies being debunked.
No need to defend OP, @commitblue is just fine.

The devforum is a place for feedback and criticism. He’s not hating he’s just stating better ways on how it should be done. Also when you post something on DevForum you should expect criticism and not for everyone to love it. I don’t think that @commitblue is hating at all
