Actually it doesn't need to be… if a function is being passed one argument and it is a string, it is perfectly valid to not have the brackets surrounding the string…

function open() 
  local side = rs.getSides()
  for i=1, #side do
    typ = peripheral.getType(side[i])
    if typ == "modem" then
      modempos = side[i]
    end
  end
  rednet.open(modempos)
end

Here, I made a function which checks for modems on the sides and opens them.

function open()
  local side = rs.getSides()
  for i=1, #side do
	typ = peripheral.getType(side[i])
	if typ == "modem" then
	  modempos = side[i]
	end
  end
  rednet.open(modempos)
end

so to use it just write open() in your code instead of rednet.open("right").

local function openAll()
  for _,side in pairs(rs.getSides()) do
	if peripheral.getType(side) == "modem" then
	  rednet.open(side)
	  return true
	end
  end
  return false
end

Some minor improvements to the code

local function openAll()
  for _,side in pairs(rs.getSides()) do
	if peripheral.getType(side) == "modem" then
	  rednet.open(side)
	  return true
	end
  end
  return false
end

this will return true if a modem has been opened and false if it hasn't. this means you can use this return value to tell the user off when there is no modem attached…

You haven't ran the openAll function just declared it

openAll()

svdragster, on 11 April 2013 - 06:00 AM said:

You need a

openAll()

in your code, or it won't run the code in the function.

Looks to short, please for your next release of this add a lot more.

local function openAll()
  for _,side in pairs(rs.getSides()) do
			    if peripheral.getType(side) == "modem" then
				  rednet.open(side)
				  return true
			    end
end
  return false
end
openAll()

Haha, do this:

local function openAll()
  for _,side in pairs(rs.getSides()) do
				if peripheral.getType(side) == "modem" then
				  rednet.open(side)
				  return true
				end
end
  return false
end
openAll()
