6 Lua is a well known scripting and programming language that is lightweight and easy to learn. Many games have embedded it, including Garry's Mod (GMod) and World of Warcraft.

Lua doesn't technically have OOP classes, but we can make lua tables walk and quack like OOP classes. When you create an instance of a class in other programming languages, that instance has all the properties, functions, and fields of that class type. In lua, we can make tables pretend to do that by messing with metamethods. local TestClass = {}
I have been dealing a lot with Lua in the past few months, and I really like most of the features but I'm still missing something among those: Why is there no continue? What workarounds are there f...
In general, if you want a switch statement in Lua, what you ought to be doing is building a table. For your simple case of choice that could be 1, 2, or fail, a simple if statement with a few conditions is sufficient. For more complex cases, a table of functions should be employed:
