Here we see that the dwarf and human "luck" figure is the default of 18 taken from the metatable, however the elf luck figure is from the original table.Īlso when we printed races.elf the _tostring function was called which formatted the output as we desired.Īnother interesting metatable item we can add is the _call one, which lets us pretend a table is a function, and "call" it. 5: table.sort (table, comp) Sorts the table based on optional comparator argument. 4: table.remove (table, pos) Removes the value from the table.

When iterating with pairs there is no specified order for traversal, even if the keys of the table are numeric. set metatable for all tables in this tableįor k, v in pairs (races) do setmetatable (v, mt) end table.insert (table, pos, value) Inserts a value into the table at specified position. The Lua standard library provides a pairs function which iterates over the keys and values of a table.
