GetTableElement

GetTableElement(<-table <-key) ->value

Description

Retrieves an element from a table and pushes it to the stack. Note that keys are case sensitive strings. A special syntax can also be used to retrieve a table element. See the example below.

If the specified element (key) does not exists in the table, the return value will have a type of NULL and can be tested with the GetType command.

Examples

 CreateTable ->table
 SetTableElement(<-table "SomeKey" 42)
 trace(GetTableElement(<-table "SomeKey"))  #prints "42"
 
 #alternate syntax
 #Use curly braces around to surround the key.
 trace(<-table{"SomeKey"}) #prints "42"
