Returning Two Values
This is easily done by using a comma between the values for the return command:
local function Return2Vars(x, y)
return x, y
end
print(Return2Vars("Hello", "World!"))
-- Output:
-- Hello World!
But how can we collect these values and store them in variables? Well, this is also quite easily done by assigning two variables on the same line to that of the function call:
local function Return2Vars(x, y)
return x, y
end
local x, y = Return2Vars("It", "Works!")
print(x, y)
-- Output:
-- It Works!
Additional Note
For clarification, this works for any number of variables and is not just limited to two. For example, you could write return 1, 2, 3, "Four" and the integers 1, 2, 3 and the string Four would be returned.
