Randomness 1.10.0

Added

• count(Table) inside {...} — how many items a table has.
  Mostly useful for rolling an index that stays valid as a table
  grows: {1d{count(npcs)}} instead of hard-coding 1d3 and
  forgetting to update it when you add a row. The argument is a table
  name rather than a value, so dotted column names
  (count(npcs.Job)), quoted names with spaces, and interpolated
  names (count({$whichTable})) all work. It counts items, so a
  lookup table with two range rows counts 2, not the span of its dice
  formula; counting a table that doesn't exist is an error, the same
  as rolling one.

Documentation

• How to pull several columns from the same rolled row. Each
  column of a markdown table is its own rollable table, so
  [@npcs.Job] and [@npcs.Name] land on different people — which
  looks like a bug the first time you write a sentence with two of
  them in it. The fix is to roll the row number once and pick by
  index: The [#{row=1d{count(npcs)}} npcs.Job] was [#{$row} npcs.Secret]. Written up in the reference (Rolling on note
  content → One row, several columns) and in guide note 02, along
  with the reason it can't be split across two `rdm:` spans:
  every inline span is evaluated on its own, so variables don't carry
  from one to the next.
• The [#table] current-index form — pick the item at the position
  of the item currently being rendered, for cross-indexing parallel
  tables — is now in the call-variations table, and the function list
  (if, max, min, round, substr, …) is documented at all.
