t = {
age = 42,
height = 102
}
m = {
--called when we use the '+' operator on the given 'tbl'
__add = function (tbl, n)
return tbl.age + n
end
}
--Make it so the table 't' gets the metatable 'm'
setmetatable(t, m)
print(t + 3) --would be t.age + 3, so we expect 42 +3 aka 45
TrialAndError explained, you can create your own __tostring to create a different text when someone does tostring(yourTable)with your table etc.
On the surface: it's just functions with specific names inside a table (must apply with setmetatable) that Lua calls whenever something happens to your table.
