Description
This attribute deletes the topmost row in a table provided certain conditions have been met. Each row in the column "Name" will be checked to see whether its contents match the associated key "Value";. Several conditions can be stipulated here with the number of conditions defined by the variable n. If all n conditions have been met, the corresponding row will be deleted. If there is no row matching the conditions, then sending the attribute has no effect.
Example
The following example deletes the first row containing the value "Peter"; in the column "Forename" and the value "Baker" in the column "Surname";.
main()
{
table.deleteLine(2, "Forename", "Peter", "Surname", "Baker");
