A table is a sequence, optionally supplemented by named keys: digit["two"]="2". Several table functions like table.concat will only work with the numbered values and ignore named keys. The metatable offers a large, optional set of methods for altering table behavior. For example, you can define a table to be callable like a function.
This Lua module is used in MediaWiki:Gadget-libSensitiveIPs.js. Changes to it can cause immediate changes to the Wikipedia user interface. To avoid major disruption, any changes should be tested in the module's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own module sandbox.
Lua provides functions to push and pop most simple C data types (integers, floats, etc.) to and from the stack, and functions to manipulate tables through the stack. The Lua stack is somewhat different from a traditional stack; the stack can be indexed directly, for example. Negative indices indicate offsets from the top of the stack.

Lua filters can be shared between Project Dogwaffle, GIMP, Pixarra Twistedbrush and ArtWeaver. Project Zomboid is a video game (similar to The Sims but in zombie theme) made in Java, that uses Lua for mods (expanding the game with scripting). Prosody is a cross-platform Jabber/XMPP server written in Lua.
This program creates a Lua state, passes the Lua state to IUPLua for initialization, and then opens and executes a Lua script against the Lua state. Or, the entire IUP state can be dynamically loaded via use of a Lua require or package.loadlib of IUPLua. The script(s) can later be compiled with the Lua compiler if needed.
Some object-oriented languages such as C#, C++ (later versions), Delphi (later versions), Go, Java (later versions), Lua, Perl, Python, Ruby provide an intrinsic way of iterating through the elements of a collection without an explicit iterator. An iterator object may exist, but is not represented in the source code. [4] [6]
