odd behaviour of mp odd function in lmtx

odd behaviour of mp odd function in lmtx

[Damien Thiriet]

Hi,


I may have found the bug that broke my metafun 
file. Looks like it is connected to odd function. 

This snippet of code:

\starttext

\startMPpage
path p;p:=origin--(20,20);
draw p;
draw p reflectedabout ((10,10),(10,-10)) withcolor red;
for i=1 upto 2:
   if odd i:
      draw p yshifted 20 withcolor green; 
   else:
      draw p xshifted 20 withcolor blue;
   fi;
endfor;


\stopMPpage

\stoptext

does not compile as I would expect (no green
line drawn). I noticed such behaviour in
2020.12.30 16:45
version. I updated a few minutes ago and have
the same output.

I hope I didn't miss anything.
Best regards,

Damien Thiriet

for now use this:

  let odd = relax;
  vardef odd expr n = ((abs(n) mod 2) == 1) enddef ;

I got it fixed (scaled, double and decimal) but no upload now
